Bernard Durkan

Question:

454. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the extent, if any, to which he has examined the possibility of enhancing the local loans fund as a means of facilitating those on local authority waiting lists who might be in a position to provide themselves with a home in the event of mortgage availability; if he will examine the methods used in the 1980's to address such issues; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I refer the replies to Questions Nos. 111 of 15 September 2011, 143 of 8 March 2012 and 222 of 3 May 2012. The position is unchanged. It remains the case that no funding restrictions have been placed on local authorities for the purposes of providing loan finance for house purchase or home improvement.
