For well over a decade, workers and families in Ringsend and Irishtown have been looking at the glass bottle site as their only hope for social and affordable homes. However, that hope has turned to fear as the local community see no determination from Dublin City Council or the Government to deliver genuinely affordable homes. No contract for affordable units has been signed yet. There is no drive to deliver transport infrastructure to support those living in the community and there is no sign of the promised Luas line. Sean Moore Road is effectively a car park at peak traffic times and it is hazardous for residents to get in and out of the estate there. The communities of Ringsend and Irishtown have been utterly failed. What will the Government do to ensure that real affordable and social homes will be delivered on site? The Minister talks about affordability. How much will affordable homes be at the glass bottle site? Will the Government consider buying extra homes on the site?

I thank Deputy Andrews for raising this issue on behalf of his constituents in Ringsend and Irishtown. The Government is extraordinarily committed to the delivery of social and affordable houses. That can be seen with the significant increases year on year in both, in addition to housing supply overall. On the specifics around the glass bottle site and some of the suggestions and proposals the Deputy made, I will ask the Minister, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, to revert to him directly.
