Vol. 443 No. 4

Written Answers. - Dublin Corporation House Building Programme.

Jim Mitchell

Question:

115 Mr. J. Mitchell asked the Minister for the Environment if his attention has been drawn to the planning and social problems which are arising in Dublin city as a result of the Local Government (Dublin) Act, 1993, which restricts Dublin Corporation's house building programme to within the city boundary; in the circumstances, the plans, if any, he has to ease the restriction and/or phase it in over a period of years; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am not aware of any such problems. My understanding is that Dublin Corporation's 1994 house building programme is, in similar fashion to 1993, being met in full by the construction or acquisition of dwellings within the corporation's functional area.
