Deputy Michael McCarthy asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide an update on a planned review into Part V of the Planning and Development Act 2000 particularly in the context of possible changes to legislation which may affect shared ownership schemes; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraThe Government's housing policy statement, published in June 2011, announced the standing down of all affordable housing schemes, including the shared ownership scheme, in the context of a full review of Part V of the Planning and Development Act 2000. That review is now underway. I will shortly publish material on my Department’s website, in furtherance of the review, and this will facilitate stakeholder consultation which is likely to take place early next year.
