Amharc ar fhreagraDetails on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each housing authority area are provided in the statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments. The most recent figures available are the results of the 2016 Summary which are available on my Department’s website at the following link: www.housing.gov.ie/sites/default/files/publications/files/summary_of_social_housing_assessments_2016.pdf.
The 2016 results show that there were 1,596 households on Waterford City and County Council’s record of qualified households as at 21 September 2016. The results do not provide a breakdown of the numbers for individual areas within the Council’s administrative area and my Department does not hold such detailed data.
