Sinn Féin’s housing plans would 'crucify' first-time buyers, Micheál Martin claimsVivienne ClarkeFianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has said Sinn Féin’s housing policy would “crucify” first-time buyers. “That’s why we’re saying to young people who are looking to buy houses, we will keep the Help To Buy scheme going until 2030. I believe there has to be a consistent level of social housing built in this country on an annual basis. “This year, we will deliver 12,000 social homes - made up of over 8,000 new builds and the rest through acquisition. Where we want to get to is about 12,000 per annum new-build social houses and do that on an annual basis.
