Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 November 2006
539 Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the steps he proposes to take to compel developers to commence and progress to completion, in tandem with the private element of their approved construction works, their Part V obligations in all developments where there is an agreed transfer of houses to the relevant local authority; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Part V provides an important mechanism for the delivery of social and affordable housing as part of overall housing output. Local authorities have been urged to ensure the earliest possible delivery of output under Part V. In relation to individual developments, it is a matter for local authorities to ensure full compliance by developers with the conditions associated with the granting of planning permission including, where appropriate, the timely transfer of units on-site agreed by the developer to satisfy the Part V condition.
