Question:

669. Deputy Darragh O'Brien asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the average cost per unit for social housing units under Part V in O'Devaney gardens; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47590/19]

Written answers

Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government (Deputy Eoghan Murphy)

As the Deputy will be aware the development at O'Devaney Gardens is based on a tenure mix, which includes 30% of the homes on site to be designated as social homes. In relation to the cost of the social housing homes that will be developed under Part V, it is not possible at this juncture to provide that financial information at this time as it may have the effect of compromising the procurement process, which is still in train.
