Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 February 2018
664. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government if an application for funding for the provision of social housing in an area (details supplied) by Longford County Council will be approved; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6788/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraTwo projects for the construction of new social housing in the area in question, have funding approval from my Department. I am very keen that the Council advances both of these projects as soon as possible. They are listed in the Social Housing Status Report that I publish quarterly, which is available at the following link: http://rebuildingireland.ie/news/quarter-3-social-housing-construction-status-report/.
Longford County Council has recently submitted a third proposal for social housing delivery in this area. My Department is awaiting further information on the proposal from the Council to enable it to be evaluated.
