Amharc ar fhreagraI am aware of, and I very much welcome, the report as a timely input into the development of a Social Housing Strategy. The recommendations contained in the report will be taken into consideration in the context of the development of the Strategy. Submissions in relation to the strategy have been publicly sought and may be made up until the end of July through the Housing Agency. Fuller details are available on the Agency's website, (www.housing.ie). It is expected that the Strategy, which was announced in Construction 2020, will be published following consideration by Government in Quarter 3 of this year.
