I propose to take Questions Nos. 69 and 70 together.
The Cabinet Committee on Housing works to ensure a coordinated approach to the implementation of Programme for Government commitments regarding housing.
The new Programme for Government sets out our ambition to accelerate housing supply, recognising housing as the biggest social and economic challenge. In the programme, we have set out our intention to ramp up construction capacity, implement the Planning and Development Act, increase the quantum of zoned and serviced land, remove unnecessary red tape, increase innovation, and provide predictable policy which attracts private investment, side by side with State investment.
We are moving forward with actions to accelerate the supply of housing and will leave no options off the table in our efforts to deal with the challenge.
The last meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Housing took place on Monday, 31st March. The Committee is due to meet again on 1st May.
Questions Nos. 71 to 79, inclusive, resubmitted.
