Challenges Relating to the Delivery of Housing: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. John Coleman:

Delivery will be delayed by at least two years. On costs, the impact of the delay and the challenge has been to add at least €30 million to the estimated delivery cost of the scheme. That is the impact on that scheme. We are not out of the woods yet. We do not have a positive planning decision. We do not know whether there will be a further challenge but that is the impact so far.
