Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage (Deputy Darragh O'Brien)

I propose to take Questions Nos. 350, 353 and 361 together.

My Department publishes comprehensive programme level statistics on a quarterly basis on social housing delivery activity by local authorities and Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) in each local authority. This data is available to the end of 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/

The total funding provided by my Department to the relevant local authorities for the delivery of capital and current Housing programmes for the period in question is set out in the table below.

Local Authority	Capital €m	Current €m	Total €m
Fingal	120	52	172
Louth	31	90	121
Tipperary	41	36	77
