Written answers

Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage (Deputy Darragh O'Brien)

Tipperary County Council reported the new social home referenced as completed in Q4 of 2021, at a total cost of €313,760.

I am not aware of this project being officially opened, possibly due to Covid restrictions which may have applied at that point.

My Department publishes quarterly Social Housing Construction Project Status Reports (CSR), which provide details of social housing developments that have been completed, are under construction or are progressing through the various stages of design and tender processes.  The full set of published CSRs can be found at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/cb885-social-housing-construction-projects-status-reports/.
