Murphy 'not living in the real world' with 'harsh' housing proposal, opposition TDs claim

Housing Minister Eoghan Murphy has come under attack for radical proposals to “punish” families on housing lists, who refuse offers, by putting back their potential waiting time by five years.

The contentious proposal was debated in the Dáil today and saw Opposition TDs round on the minister, with claims he was “not living in the real world”, and likely changes were “very harsh”.
