Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (Kevin Boxer Moran)

Under the 2017 Voluntary Homeowners Relocation Scheme stage payments are released to Homeowners as they meet the eligibility criteria of the Scheme.  This will vary on a case by case basis as Homeowners progress through the different stages of the Scheme.

It is not possible to provide information at County level, as this presents a risk that individual homeowners could be identified.
