Taoiseach Micheál Martin has acknowledged that housing is the biggest challenge facing the country, and said that the Government is working to produce a policy to tackle the issue of cuckoo funds buying up estates.
Mr Martin said the Government fully recognised that the current generation of young people were the most disadvantaged of all such generations when it came to buying affordable homes.
âAnything we can do in terms of housing, we are going to do because itâs the No 1 crisis facing the people, young people in particular who are in search of a new home â thatâs something that worries me a lot,â he said.
