Written answers

Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage

As with all locally delivered social housing, the management of the project at Colmcille Terrace, Granard is being overseen by Longford County Council, in this case working with Tuath Housing Association. My Department has met with both Longford County Council and Tuath on this project and we issued pre-tender funding approval in July 2022.

I understand that the tender process has been completed and the tenders received are currently being analysed following which, my Department expects to receive the post-tender funding proposal including, we anticipate, a recommendation to appoint the successful contractor.

Further information on the specifics of this project will be available directly from Longford County Council .
