Public Accounts Committee

2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works

9:30 am

Mr. Ciaran O'Connor:

It is not that simple. The closest one I can give the Deputy would involve taking the example of the site at Backweston, which is just on the border with County Kildare. We have constructed a two-storey unit. This is within 10% of a social house. It was done based on only 12 houses being built. The big plus that has come out of this whole programme is that we have taken an embryonic industry and turned it into one that can now assist in the provision of more housing.
