Mr. Bob Jordan:

By the end of 2026. Today, the LDA announced that it has appointed a contractor to deliver 219 social and affordable homes at the former Devoy Barracks. It is moving on.

While lands may not have been appropriate for social and affordable housing under development plans, we have offered nine sites to provide, for instance, accommodation for Ukrainians. Forty-two of those are already in place in Rathdowney, County Laois. We have developed biodiversity plans for about 20 of the sites. Sports grounds are being provided on some of them and some will be used for school facilities, etc.

We obviously have to bottom out whether social and affordable housing will ever be delivered on these sites, and then cascade downwards and see if we can find other sites.
