There are currently no such applications with my Department. All such applications should first be made to the relevant local authority who would then submit a proposal to my Department seeking approval.
The 2017 funding provision for the Capital Assistance Scheme (CAS) is €66 million. Applications to deliver new social housing under the scheme should be made by an Approved Housing Body (AHB) to the relevant local authority, Cork County Council in this case. As with all social housing projects, it is a matter for the local authority, as the housing authority for the area, to prioritise projects on the basis of how they meet the area's housing need.
