765. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the number and location of properties acquired by each local authority under the buy and renew scheme since its inception in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26737/19]
View answerSince the Buy & Renew Scheme was introduced in 2017, local authorities have delivered over 400 properties, with funding of €76.8m approved by my Department.
Details of the numbers of properties per local authority are set out in the table below. Local authorities may also acquire properties in need of remediation under their normal acquisitions programmes, the responsibility for which is largely delegated to local authorities.
