I expect the extant uncommenced planning permissions in Longford have also arisen for the reason Mr. Kelly outlined, namely, the level of demand for private housing.

On development that is applied for and built, for what percentage of the councils planning approvals granted each year does one-off or single unit housing account? I note the Office of the Planning Regulator's recent report showed a significant increase. Has either of the local authorities experienced an increase in one-off developments? The term "one-off" does not differentiate between one-off rural and urban, to the best of my knowledge. The question is on single house units.
