Written Answers. - Local Authority Housing.
The average cost of providing a three bedroom local authority house in the County Limerick area is currently about £50,000. The cost of providing 200 local authority houses would, on this basis, be in the region of £10 million. However, the actual cost of 200 houses would depend on land acquisition costs, tender prices, etc. at the time.
