Housing for All: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage
Ms ?ine Stapleton:
The Deputy has raised a very practical point. We are working with the housing delivery co-ordination office to deal effectively with a clearing house process through some of those approvals that seem to be stuck at a particular stage of the approval process in order that we can get an updated view in relation to some of those, and particularly those earlier ones the Deputy touched on, which may go back as far as 2018. That is something that is on our radar and we would not disagree. We need to bottom out the reasons they have not progressed to the next stage, whether they are capable of being progressed or whether there is some insurmountable difficulty with the project. This is something we are working through with the sector.
