Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 February 2019
657. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the number of standard and priority allocations refused by social housing applicants for each local authority in 2017 and 2018; and if the figures will be provided as a percentage of total allocations for each council.

Amharc ar fhreagraDetailed data of the kind sought is not available in my Department as the management of the letting of social housing homes is a matter for individual housing authorities in the first instance. However, from engagement with local authorities, it is estimated that there are up to 2,000 refusals of offers of social housing across the country each year.
