Housing

The cost of housing throughout the country is out of control. The recently reported fact that 45% of all new house prices goes to the exchequer was a major eye opener. A radical rethink about how our housing needs will be provided for in the future needs to take place. This debate needs to take place in parallel with major infrastructure proposals. Doing so will enable us to begin the process of joined up thinking. Something which has sadly been absent during the last decade.

This will enable Livable Ireland to put children at the centre of the education debate, patients at the centre of the health debate, commuters at the centre of the transport debate etc... and break the current vicious circle of appeasing special interest groups. Putting all of this in perspective for the Irish people will show the deficiencies within our current political system. Let Livable Ireland know your views and ideas on how we may best meet our housing needs of the future.
