Committee on Housing and Homelessness
Housing Agency

Mr. John O'Connor:
Yes, it is a simple process. From our point of view, the main thing is that the local authority is actually going to utilise the land to provide housing. We are working on this. A number of sites are, in different ways, in the process of going back to local authorities to be utilised for housing and we are working in partnership with some local authorities to develop sites. For example, there is one site in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown which we want to get built as quickly as possible, and there are other sites around the country. If the local authorities want to build housing, the land will be transferred back.
