Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 9 May 2018
284. Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the number of new social houses on which construction work was completed in 2017, by local authority; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20347/18]
View answerThrough the supports made available from my Department, funding is available to all local authorities to deliver additional social housing through new construction projects, through the acquisition of new and previously owned houses/apartments and through working with approved housing bodies under a range of delivery options.
Details on the number of new social homes delivered during 2017 under these funding initiatives, including those built in each local authority area, for letting to those on the social housing waiting lists, are available on my Department’s website at the following link: http://www.housing.gov.ie/sites/default/files/attachments/1a2-sh-2015-2017-brkdn-final_2018_v3_0.xlsx.
