Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Housing for Older People: Discussion (Resumed)

12:00 pm

Ms Sarah Neary:

The new planning guidelines are the most significant element to have increased the number of one and two-bed units in any particular apartment block. The number of one-bed or studio-type apartments has gone up to 50% which represents our changing demographic. There is no target required for three or four bedroom apartment types. It is geared to the one and two bedrooms.
