Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 17 December 2015
124. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Finance the number of housing units the National Asset Management Agency has approved and transferred for social housing, by county; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45941/15]
View answerI am advised that NAMA has made a substantial contribution to social housing provision, as illustrated by the breakdown set out in the following table.
NAMA has to date facilitated the delivery of 2,000 houses and apartments for social housing through its debtors and receivers and directly through its social housing special purpose company, NARPS. This equates to more than one-third of total Part V social housing delivery in the period between 2002 and 2011 when over 500,000 new private houses were built in the State. In delivering these units for social housing, I am further advised that NAMA has incurred costs of over €220m in remediating and finishing off houses and apartments so that they could be lived in and in buying properties from its debtors and receivers for onward leasing through NARPS to local authorities and approved housing bodies.
