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

My Department publishes the Social Housing Construction Status Report (CSR), which provides 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 most recent CSR (Quarter 4 2022) and previous reports are available at the following links:

My Department has no record of the project referred to. However, my Department provided Stage 4 approval to a project at Boice Court in January 2023 for the delivery of 72 units.
