As announced on budget day, the Minister for Finance, Deputy Michael Noonan, has asked NAMA to carry out an analysis of development sites controlled by its debtors and receivers with a view to identifying the scope for residential delivery for the period up to 2020. It is important to note that its target of 20,000 residential units by the end of 2020 estimates that 90% of that will be in the greater Dublin area, which includes Dublin, Meath, Kildare and Wicklow. Given the vital importance of ensuring that for social and economic reasons new residential supply is delivered as quickly as is feasible NAMA will work closely with local authorities and the utilities to ensure all the relevant bodies co-operate effectively to deliver on this programme.
