These provisions will be used to advance capital investment across a range of programme areas within my Department’s remit. The Housing for All Strategy is the Government’s plan to increase the supply of housing to an average of 33,000 per year over the next decade, including an annual average of 10,000 social homes from 2022 to 2030. Funding of almost €4 billion is available in 2022 to deliver capital and current housing programmes. This funding will support social and affordable housing delivery, along with the implementation of a broad range of programmes providing targeted support to meet housing need.
In relation to capital ceilings for 2023-2025, these are outlined in the National Development Plan published by DPER. See link below:
