Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

My first question is for the CCMA. Mr. Curran referenced the county and city development plans. This process takes about two years. Considering all the pent-up need for affordable housing and how long we have all waited for an affordable rental scheme, I really hope we will not be waiting for two years for the local authorities to give us a projection on the need for affordable housing for purchase and rent in each local authority area. Will Mr. Curran explain to us when we can expect to see a statement from the CCMA on what the projected needs are and what the targets will be?
