The Department does not maintain information on un-commenced Part 8 planning permissions from the local authorities. We do, however, publish a range of information on the advancement of social housing programmes broken down by local authority.
This includes programme level statistics on a quarterly basis on social housing delivery by the local authorities, with data up to the end of Quarter 1 of 2022 available on the statistics page of my Department’s website at the following link:
www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/.
My Department also publishes a Social Housing Construction Status Report (CSR) each quarter. This provides details of social housing developments that have been completed, are under construction or are progressing through the various stages of the design and pre-tender process for each local authority. The data to Quarter 1 of 2022 is available at the following link:
www.gov.ie/en/publication/6912a-social-housing-construction-projects-status-report-q1-2022/.
The Quarter 2 statistics are being collated and will be published in due course.
The information in the CSR on social housing developments at the various stages of advancement includes those that are at the 'pre-planning' stage/Stage 2. Developments beyond that stage will have secured planning approval.
Projects that are at Stage 4 and beyond have been approved by my Department to appoint contractors. I look forward to seeing those homes completed, and allocated, to families and individuals on the waiting lists, as soon as possible.
