Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion

Mr. Frank Curran:

On vacant units, we would have about 150 re-lets per year. As we build more houses, people move on and the property becomes available and we turn it around as quickly as we can. Similarly, we have properties that we acquire. We are going to try space letting. Some of those are vacant and available. We try to expedite the allocation process as much as possible.

Construction price inflation is not really affecting our sites. We have 670 units on site, 145 are pre-tender and 301 at preliminary design. We have one scheme where the builder has got into financial difficulty and has withdrawn from the site. How many is that?
