Ms Anne Colgan:

I refer to the data we talked about a little earlier, which showed there are just under 30,000 units of social housing across 2,000 schemes in the pipeline at the moment. All are Part A projects so the ambition is there. The barriers have been elsewhere, but local authority officials, housing departments and planners are very much up for the challenge of providing social housing of quality. In our case, very high-quality units in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown have won international prizes for the quality of the homes that have been built and offered. The willingness is definitely there. We have to remove any unnecessary administrative impediments from the system that get in the way of delivery.
