Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Affordable Housing Bill 2020: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage
Mr. Robert Nicholson:
To the best of my knowledge five have been delivered. There are some very significant ones around Guinness Lands and Curragower. I must say we have strong engagement with Limerick City and County Council and both the National Development Finance Agency, NDFA, and the Housing Agency in terms of supporting them. There are either four or five in fairly brownfield sites in the middle of Limerick which the council is trying to progress at the moment. I think they are a mixture of cost-rental and affordable purchase but again, as always, plans and development rest with the local council for that detailed design and planning.
