Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Ivan Grimes:
The delivery plan was prepared based on the summary of social housing assessments, which indicated what the demand was in those settlements. That is why we have structured the plan in this way. Land is a constraint in certain areas. Mr. Walsh made the point in his opening statement that we will be looking to that in the near future to meet demand. From an affordability perspective, the affordability difficulty for people in County Waterford is probably slightly higher outside Waterford city in towns such as Tramore, Dunmore East and Dungarvan.
