601. Deputy Fiona O'Loughlin asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the status of plans for the regeneration of a location (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3878/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is providing funding support to Kildare County Council for the remediation works to the location referred to in the question, with the advancement of the works being a matter for the council itself.
The works are being delivered in three phases, the first of which is under way and is anticipated to be finished by Q3 2019. This involves remedial works to 34 homes and a range of other improvements to the area.
Phases 2 and 3 will include further remedial works to existing homes and the construction of new homes. Kildare County Council have been requested by my Department to submit revised proposals for later phases, and I understand they are currently working on this.
While I understand that this is a complex project, I look forward to it being successfully advanced so that improved conditions are delivered for the people of the area.
