Ceisteanna (298)

Richard Bruton

Ceist:

298. Deputy Richard Bruton asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the number and aggregate area of vacant sites registered on the vacant sites register in each local authority; and the estimated liability and collection of revenue from the levy. [57492/21]

The requested information is outlined in the attached spreadsheet. The legislation which governs the Vacant Sites Levy, the Urban Regeneration and Housing Act 2015, does not require local authorities to record the area of the sites which are entered on the register, and therefore this information is not available to my Department.

The information in the attached spreadsheet was collected by my Department following the issuing of Circular Letter PL 03/2021 on 8 March 2021 requesting the submission of a progress report on the collection of the levy by each local authority.
