View answerThis Government is absolutely committed to ensuring that affordable, quality housing solutions are available to everyone in Irish society and this is reflected in the Programme for Government - Our Shared Future. The Programme commits to putting affordability at the heart of the housing system through the progression of State-backed affordable housing.
In terms of affordable housing, I will outline my detailed plans in the Autumn, taking account of the progress made under the Serviced Sites Fund, the development of the Affordable Purchase Scheme and Cost Rental.
