Under my Department's Remedial Works Scheme, Ennis Town Council submitted a programme of refurbishment works for local authority houses at various locations, including Davitt Terrace. My Department gave approval for the first phase of these works in May of this year which includes works in Shallee Drive and Gordon Drive which is a pilot project within the wider programme. It is a matter for the Council to advance these works and thereafter to prioritise the order in which the remaining works can be undertaken. When the pilot exercise is completed allocations of funding will be announced.
