Written answers

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

This project was reported by Wexford County Council as completed in Q2, 2018 with 2 new social homes delivered.  This project received funding of €632,461 from my Department.

The project was not officially opened by a Minister.

My Department publishes quarterly Social Housing Construction Projects 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/.
