Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

Planning for Inclusive Communities: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms AnnMarie Farrelly:

I will come in on the private housing delivery. We have some good examples during pre-planning on Part V units. We have worked with a developer to design units to suit people who are awaiting social housing. I can think of three examples in Fingal, in recent delivery where basically the Part V was designed to meet the individual need. On the care package with CAS, the reality probably is that the care-package cost goes up when the allocation is made and that is more than likely what is causing the difficulty for individuals, that this negotiation needs to happen with the HSE.
