I propose to take Questions Nos. 347 and 348 together.
There are no properties owned, leased or rented by my Department which are not currently in use. In the case of the local authority social housing stock, the Ninth Annual Report on Service Indicators, published by the Local Government Management Agency in March 2014, which sets out the position in relation to 2012, provides a range of information in relation to social housing stock, including information on the number of units and in relation to vacant dwellings. Copies of the report are available from the Local Government Management Agency and may be downloaded from their website at the following weblink:

Information on other types of vacant local authority property outside of the social housing stock and information on the numbers of private properties which are unoccupied but not available to rent or buy is not avail able in my Department.
