View answerPreparation of the Implementation Plan for the National Housing Strategy for Disabled People is underway and will be launched in Quarter 4 2022.
The Implementation Plan will be aimed at delivering housing and related supports for disabled people through the cooperation and collaboration of Government Departments, state agencies and others in line with the new Strategy. The Implementation Plan and new Strategy will operate within the framework of Housing for All – A New Housing Plan for Ireland which is committed to ensuring that affordable, quality housing with an appropriate mix of housing design types provided within social housing, including universally designed units, is available to everyone in Irish society, including those with disabilities.
The Housing Agency will have a key partner role with my Department in ensuring the delivery of the actions under the Strategy and coordinating the interagency collaboration at regional and national level.
