Written answers

My Department provides significant funding support to local authorities in terms of various targeted housing stock upgrade programmes.

In respect of local authority housing stock in Donegal impacted by defective concrete blocks, further evaluation of the issue is being undertaken by Donegal County Council. Once this evaluation is complete my Department will consider the requirements necessary to resolve the matter with Donegal County Council.
