Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government

Derelict Sites and Underused Spaces: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. Michael Walsh:

I do not have the figure available here, but it is as high as 50% in some local authorities, varying downwards to 20%, perhaps, so it certainly averages in the region of 30% to 40%, I think. Choice-based letting is bringing about significant improvement in this regard. It varies dramatically from local authority to local authority.
