This is as part of a wider commitment to develop 597 new social and affordable homes.
She said: "The Green Party was the first party in Ireland to champion the cost rental model and now that we are in Government we are seeing it become a reality. I am passionate about making Dublin a city for living again, a city that people can afford to live in again. Electing me to the Dáil on Thursday will help ensure the delivery of similar crucial projects – such as the Irish Glass Bottle site – which will offer secure and affordable homes in Dublin Bay South and help bring an end to our housing crisis.

"I'm asking people on Thursday to make their vote count. We are now dealing with a climate crisis, a housing crisis and public health crisis. You can send all the signals you want to government by voting for opposition candidates, but signals don't build houses, signals don't take climate action, and signals won’t steer us out of the Covid crisis. These are things the Greens in government are doing and the best signal voters can send this week is that they want a progressive female voice in government; someone who can actually deliver, and deliver quickly."
