Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Local Government and Heritage

Unlocking Barriers to the Delivery of Housing: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Brian O'Gorman:

I think it is holding back the amount of development that could be done.

What we are saying is that we get all our money as debt and we have to provide for that debt, so it costs us more to manage and maintain that property into the future. We want to get across the point that we are not looking for more money. We are looking for money given in a different way. We are looking for money as equity, not as debt that we have to pay back and provide for in higher rents and higher costs.
