I can show Ms Morrison Housing for All. The Minister, Darragh O’Brien, might give the OPW a grant under the repair and lease scheme or the Croí Cónaithe scheme. There is no excuse for having residences empty for more than ten years. I urge the OPW to take immediate action. There are just four properties, so it is not a major issue, but there is no reason for them to still be on the OPW’s books. Even if substantial works are needed, there are multiple methods for restoring them. I find it difficult to believe that they would not be availed of if they were offered to any of the thousands of people on housing waiting lists.
