But at the same time, the laws that you're bringing in are spooking the very people that provide the accommodation, so they're giving them eviction notices.

So that's not well thought out.

It's not joint up.

It's like what I've said before.

Departments aren't talking and they need to.

And what we did with COVID, we all sat together.

We converted hospital emergency rooms into COVID specific rooms.

We had a joint up thinking process.

I don't think I get the same with the housing.

I know I'm on the housing committee and every week I keep trying to see where are the blockages?

So I introduced a seller's pact there recently.

Conveyancing should take eight weeks.

Why is it taking eight months in Ireland?

So simple things like that.

If we can unblock, well, then you get housing moving.

Housing delivery is the key.
