That is fine. There should always be an appeals process in any decision-making process. We have one in most walks of life. The appeals process should be quite speedy. We do not want people in an appeals process to have to spend 12 or 18 months not knowing what is going to happen regarding their housing needs or where they will end up. For the applicant and for the system to operate properly, the appeals process should be speedy and not long and drawn out.

Mr. Kelly might be able to expand on an issue about which I was quite confused earlier. Threshold highlighted it:

The requirement for all members of an applicant household to be habitually resident [I presume they would have to prove it] to be eligible for social housing supports may exclude some from such supports. This includes those who have the right to reside in Ireland with their families and are enjoying this ... right.

Is it the case that if one member of the immediate family does not meet the criteria, the rest of the family do not? Could Mr. Kelly explain it?
