Details of the CAS housing units delivered are available on my Department’s website at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/#local-authority-acquisition. Data in relation to 2020 delivery is currently being finalised with the local authorities and will be published as soon as possible.
My Department does not have data on the precise applications to local authorities under CAS broken down between the different categories of possible tenants, including people with a disability. At the time of an application, the eventual allocation of the new housing may not be finalised. For example, new CAS housing units may be developed with accessibility or mobility-friendly features built in, but could equally be allocated to a person with disability or to an elderly person. The final allocation may only be decided on completion of the housing and may depend on who is on the Council’s waiting list at that time.
