Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementation of Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Daniel McLoughlin:

We do not have houses that are 100 years old. About a decade ago, we started putting aside a substantial amount of money for a planned maintenance programme. About five years ago, as we gained on the experience of that, we put in place a dedicated €10 million fund for a planned maintenance programme. That is what is generally referred to locally as windows and doors. That is supplemented by the national retrofit programme. That is boxed off as a planned maintenance piece. Mr. Ward can take the Deputy through our reactive maintenance. I think our oldest housing is 30 to 50 years old.
