Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 April 2016
470. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the funding allocated to each local authority for the refurbishment or regeneration of vacant social housing in each of the years from 2014 to 2015 and to date in 2016. [7638/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe funding provided by my Department to local authorities in 2014 and 2015 to support their work in dealing with vacant social housing units is set out in the following table. This funding is in addition to the work and resources that local authorities deploy themselves to deal with this issue, which arises because the repair and re-letting of vacant social houses has always been part of the ongoing work that local authorities carry out on their social housing stock as part of their responsibilities as housing authorities under Section 58 of the Housing Act 1966. Funding is being provided by my Department as a continuation of the support for local authorities for this activity into 2016. However, full year allocations are awaiting the finalisation of lists of units by authorities. Once finalised, the funding position will be kept under review as the year progresses.
