Written answers

My Department regularly publishes information on the number and value of (i) local authority loan approvals and (ii) local authority loan drawdowns. Local authority approval means that an official letter of offer has been sent to a borrower (and therefore relates to a specific property and loan amount). 

The Rebuilding Ireland Home Loan has been made available nationwide from local authorities since 1 February 2018. Approximately over 2,300 Rebuilding Ireland Home Loans have been drawn down since the commencement of this scheme. Statistics on this to Q1 2021 can be found under the heading “Rebuilding Ireland Home Loan 2018 to date” at the below link.

Loans approved and drawn down prior to 1 February 2018 can be found under the headings “LA loans approved by year 1976 to date” and “LA loans paid by individual LA 2010 to date” can also be found at the below link -
