Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementation of Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Daniel McLoughlin:
I spoke about our scheme at Belgard earlier. It will answer many questions for us. We consider it to be a good location and site. It is uncomplicated. Unfortunately we are bringing it to tender at a difficult time. The tenders have been received and are currently being assessed. We will have an outcome to bring to council in November if there are any choices, based on the cost and the 40 year planned maintenance cycle which was recently increased by the Minister in the affordable housing fund. There will be an element of crunching the numbers and we hope to finish that in the next two weeks so that we have something to bring to the corporate policy group, CPG, and to council in November.
