Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 27 July 2021
636. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the amount which has been drawn down from the Local Infrastructure Housing Activation Fund to date in 2021, by local authority in tabular form. [39528/21]
View answerThe level of expenditure to end 2020, was approximately €79.888m with circa €59.916m in Exchequer funds drawn down, matched by 25% local authority funding. A further €11.399m has been expended in 2021 on the same basis.
While drawdown to date has been in-line with expectations and budget profiling, at this time it is not fully apparent what impact the extended closure of the construction sector earlier this year, due to the Level 5 public health restrictions, will have on Local Infrastructure Housing Activation Fund (LIHAF) funding claims in 2021. The table below details the exchequer funding drawn down for the period 01 January 2021 to 27 July 2021.
