The public spending code requires that housing projects with a cost of more than €20 million be subject to a cost-effectiveness analysis before getting approval from the Department to proceed. When will final guidance on the analysis be issued to all local authorities? It has not yet been issued and, according to information I received through a freedom of information request, it has caused great confusion and continued delays in progressing projects.
