Kildare County Council, along with all other local authorities, is being funded to increase significantly its delivery of social housing as part of Rebuilding Ireland.
Details on the number of social houses constructed, purchased, leased or supported through the Housing Assistance Payment or Rental Accommodation Scheme by all local authorities over the past 3 years, including Kildare County Council is available on my Department's website at the following link: http://www.housing.gov.ie/housing/social-housing/social-and-affordble/overall-social-housing-provision .
In accordance with Section 22 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 and associated Regulations, the allocation of such additional social homes in Kildare and the normal reletting of properties otherwise becoming available are a matter for the Council. Accordingly, my Department does not hold information regarding their precise allocation.
