Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. John Brannigan:

We ensure that no contractor has more than two properties for renovation works. We have increased the pool of contractors so we anticipate that in 2023 we will reduce and drive down the vacancy rate. We set an internal target of getting it below 3% and driving it down even lower than that.
