Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 11 April 2024
14. Deputy Seán Haughey asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage how many social homes are either on site or at design and tender stage; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15667/24]
View answerMy Department publishes the Social Housing Construction Status Report (CSR). The CSR provides details of social housing developments and their locations that have been completed, are under construction or are progressing through the various stages of design and tender processes. The most recent publication was for Quarter 4 2023 and shows that 7,089 social homes are currently onsite with an additional 15,448 homes at design and tender stage.
In Quarter 4 2023, 190 new construction schemes consisting of 4,185 homes were added to the pipeline. The addition of new construction schemes to the pipeline shows local authorities are developing their social housing build pipelines and continually adding new projects.
These figures do not include local authority Part V delivery. All Construction Status Reports are published on my Department's website.
