My Department continues to work with all Local Authorities in respect of suitable opportunities for Turnkey delivery of new public homes. Local Authorities are particularly focussed on those opportunities where planning permissions are in place and where the development may not advance without the assurance of the Local Authorities interest.
Turnkey developments are contracted by Local Authorities following a public advertisement and assessment against the advertised criteria.
In the case of Kerry County Council, three Turnkey projects have received funding approval from my Department and a further project is currently being assessed.
My Department publishes comprehensive programme level statistics on a quarterly basis on social housing delivery activity. This data is published on the statistics page of my Department’s website, at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060`e-overall-social-housing-provision/. This provides information for a number of categories of social housing delivery in terms of the various delivery streams including Turnkey and also contains the targets for each local authority during each year of the programme.
