A new poll on Claire Byrne on Monday night revealed that 75% and 74% of responders don't believe either Fine Gael or Fianna Fail can fix the housing crisis. Denise Charlton, CEO of the Community Foundation for Ireland, said: “These findings coupled with those which will be published with the full report on Friday provide important information for policymakers as the country begins to emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Housing issue is 'number one priority' - TaoiseachTaoiseach Micheál Martin has said the Government regards the issue of housing as its 'number one priority' and that it will be doing everything it possibly can to provide housing for people.
