The information requested is set out in the table.

For 2017, in addition to the funding provided to local authorities under the build and acquisition programme, further funding of €70 million was provided in respect of the Housing Agency Acquisitions programme to facilitate the acquisition of suitable portfolios of properties for social housing from financial institutions and investors.

In respect of the provision of HAP funding, Limerick City and County Council provides a highly effective HAP transactional shared service on behalf of all local authorities.  This HAP Shared Services Centre (SSC) manages all HAP related rental transactions for the tenant, local authority and landlord.  Accordingly, my Department does not recoup individual local authorities in respect of HAP rental payments in their administrative areas but rather recoups all landlord costs via the HAP SSC. 

My Department has since 2015 provided local authorities with a HAP administrative payment of €150 per HAP household on the basis of the cumulative number of new households supported through HAP in each year. This administrative payment recognises the resources required to manage the HAP process by local authorities.
