Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Sonya Kavanagh:
No. We are very mindful of a number of different factors, including the building regulations we have to adhere to and the cost per unit of what we are going out to tender for. We have had difficulties in the past, where we looked to try different construction methods that would bring the units in under the cost the Department would allow.
It is something we would have to give some more time and consideration to. We have not been able to build it into the process so far.
