Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 October 2017
609. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the delivery of and targets for delivery of social housing owned by local authorities and approved housing bodies, properties leased under the SHCEP programme and properties leased under RAS and HAP programmes for each year covered by Rebuilding Ireland, for example, 2016 to 2021. [43835/17]
Amharc ar fhreagra624. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government if he will provide a breakdown of the 40,000 real social housing units to be delivered under Rebuilding Ireland by categories (details supplied), in tabular form. [43992/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 609 and 624 together.
Following the first phase of my review of Rebuilding Ireland and with the provision made under Budget 2018 for social housing delivery, there is now a greater emphasis on direct build activity by local authorities and Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs). The following table sets out the targets in respect of social housing under the main programme areas for each year of Rebuilding Ireland.
