Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Annette Aspell:
The Department will not fund it until we start to bring it through the approval process. We have to be at stage 2 in the process of delivering a scheme before we get the recoupment from the Department. We would carry a cost for the longer term for the site. We would love to add sites to our land bank if we could, but the affordability issue has to be a key criterion in what we can deliver in the future.
