Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 July 2020
340. Deputy Violet-Anne Wynne asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the addresses approved in 2018 and 2019 in County Clare for void funding; and the reason local authorities are reluctant to divulge information to elected representatives. [18436/20]
View answerUnder the voids programme, my Department supported Clare County Council in their efforts to return 43 units to productive use in 2018 and 62 units in 2019. This figure does not include homes which were returned to productive use by local authorities using funding from their own resources. In relation to data requests for individual addresses, that information should be available within each local authority and its release is a matter for each authority taking account of statutory requirements.
