View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 305 and 306 together.
At the end of Q2 2021, Westmeath County Council had secured 7 properties, with Longford County Council having secured none, under long term leasing agreements in 2021.
A breakdown of total leasing delivery for social housing by location and leasing delivery streams such as long term leasing, the Mortgage to Rent Scheme (MTR), the Repair and Leasing Scheme (RLS) and the Enhanced Leasing Scheme can be found on my Department's website at the following link:

Delivery data for Q3 2021 is being collated at present and will be published as soon as that process is finalised.
