507 Deputy John Deasy asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the number of non Irish nationals that have been housed by each local authority in each of the past five years. [22354/07]
View answerThe information requested is not available in my Department. However, the Local Authority Housing Needs Assessment 2005 shows that there were a total of 6,624 Non Irish Households on the waiting list. A breakdown of these by local authority was published in my Department's Annual Housing Bulletin for 2005, which is available in the Oireachtas Library and on my Department's website at www.environ.ie.
