The announcement I made on 5 May 2015 in respect of a major Social Housing construction programme with €312m investment, comprising over 100 projects and 1,700 housing units, included two new build projects in County Wexford. I stated at the time that this announcement was part of the first phase of direct-build projects under the Government's Social Housing Strategy and that further assessments are being carried which will result in the approval of additional projects, details of which will be announced in due course.
It should also be borne in mind that the local authority building programme is just one of a range of mechanisms through which social housing need is to be met. On 1 April 2015, I announced targets for all local authorities to 2017, under which Wexford County Council has a target of 677 units, supported by € 25.4 m of investment.
