Question:418 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the seriousness of the housing problem in County Kildare; if he will arrange for emergency measures, such as the release of private sites to those in possession of shared ownership loans, or those who are on the housing list in an effort to make some reasonable impact on the large number of families seeking a home; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
