AIB has suggested the government should launch a new shared ownership scheme to ease the housing crisis.

The scheme would see low and middle-income workers buying a home in conjunction with their local authority. This would help those earning too much to qualify for social housing, but too little to get a big enough mortgage to buy their own home.

Ian Guider, markets editor of The Business Post, joined us for the business news to discuss this story and more, including:

  • The Central Bank says the economy will slow gradually over the next couple of years and there will be some difficulties with trade with the UK
  • BP's new Irish boss pledges net-zero emissions by 2050
