Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 34 - Housing, Planning and Local Government

9:00 am

Dr. Donal McManus:

The number has moved from what it was a couple of years ago. It is now probably 200 or 300, which is still quite low. There are a lot of moving parts in the mortgage to rent scheme, including financial institutions and banks. One of the issues is we are not able to predict how quickly we will get schemes over the line. Transferring one unit involves almost the same amount of work as transferring a scheme of 30 or 40 units. It is labour intensive.
