Development points for article

This is a good start but it needs:

more on the origins of the problem
some mention of what, if any, investigation of, and State action against, the source quarries / companies has occurred, beyond one partial example
clarity on why homeowners, generally did not sue suppliers, building contractors, etc., or why the State did not seize their assets to partially compensate for billions in scheme costs (there are reasons)
the mica-related loss of the Government parliamentary majority

Also recommended that the title of the article be changed to "Irish defective block crisis", as the new DCBS scheme covers several counties outside of Donegal, and the overall impact of the use of defective block now covers multiple counties within Ireland — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nkomati (talk • contribs) 09:03, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
