As the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government knows, the target for all local authorities this year is to build 2,400 houses. That is what the Department has said.
There is promised legislation on statutory regulation of approved housing bodies. These are a key component to delivery on the housing crisis. Since there is no statutory regulation in this area, the Minister does not know how many houses are being built by these bodies. There is only a voluntary code of regulation in place. When will we see statutory regulation of approved housing bodies?
