276. Deputy Cian O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will provide a full breakdown on tenants in-situ purchases for 2022, in tabular form; if he will include a new category to log tenant in-situ purchases when publishing social housing data; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9723/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department publishes comprehensive programme level statistics on a quarterly basis on social housing delivery activity in all local authorities, including information on social housing acquisitions. This data is available until the end of Quarter 3 2022 and is published on the statistics page of my Department’s website, at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/. Data for Quarter 4 is currently being collated and will be published in due course.
My Department does not hold data on the occupation status of properties acquired for social housing in 2022. For 2023, an amendment is being made to my Department's statistical returns to collate information on the number of properties acquired where a social housing tenant has received a Notice of Termination.
