I propose to take Questions Nos. 598, 600 and 602 together.

Details of Local Authority Social Housing Targets, broken down by Local Authority, for 2018 and for the period 2018-2021 are now available on the Rebuilding Ireland website at the following link: http://rebuildingireland.ie/news/minister-murphy-publishes-social-housing-delivery-targets-for-local-authorities-2018-2021/.

The overall 2018 Build target is for the delivery of 4,969 additional social homes including 3,819 local authority and Approved Housing Body (AHB) build units. The Quarter 4 Construction Status Report, available on the Rebuilding Ireland website at the link below, provides project detail on the existing pipeline in place, which will support the delivery against this target. The report is based on activity up to end 2017 and, over the course of the first quarter of 2018, further projects will have been moving through from approval to on-site, with additional projects also being added to the pipeline. These will be reflected in the next quarterly report. http://rebuildingireland.ie/news/minister-murphy-publishes-social-housing-construction-status-report-q4-2017/.

Completions for Q1 2018 will be published on my Department's website in due course.

Local Authorities, AHBs and all other stakeholders are fully mobilised towards meeting the Build target for 2018. My Department will be continuing to work with Local Authorities to maximise delivery and harness any additional appropriate opportunities to deliver on the additional build units in 2018, including through turn-key schemes.
