Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 February 2018
226. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the number of single stage process projects below €2 million for the delivery of social housing units under way nationally by local authority and municipal district; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10269/18]
View answerTo date, 13 social housing capital projects are being advanced by local authorities via the single-stage approval process for projects with a maximum all-in budget up to €2m. These projects have been proposed by the local authorities in Meath, Louth, Laois, Cavan, Leitrim, Roscommon, Fingal, Wicklow and Galway County.
Revisions to the single-stage approval process were recently introduced, so I expect the take-up on this option will increase over time.
