Amharc ar fhreagraData in relation to social housing targets and delivery on a local authority basis, across all delivery streams under Rebuilding Ireland, can be found on my Department's website at the following link:

The overall social housing targets set for 2016-2021, include homes to be delivered through a range of delivery mechanisms. This includes rapid build, buy and renew delivery and the repair and leasing scheme (RLS), along with all other delivery streams, which will contribute to the delivery of 50,000 homes over the lifetime of Rebuilding Ireland. It should be noted that it is a matter for individual local authorities to determine the most suitable mechanism for delivery at local level. The focus is on delivering homes, as quickly as possible, and utilising the schemes and delivery mechanisms that work best at local level.
