I will provide some more examples of affordable purchase homes being made available. Hampton Gardens Close in Balbriggan includes nine one-bedroom apartments and nine two-bedroom ground-floor duplexes costing between €170,000 and €220,000. Hawkes Road in Bishopstown, Cork, has 35 two- and three-bedroom homes for €246,000 to €289,000. At Dun Emer in Lusk, there are two- and three-bedroom homes for €166,000 to €245,000. Bower Hill in Athlone, County Westmeath, has three-bedroom homes costing between €248,000 and €288,000. These homes are within the affordable bracket.

On the overall delivery figures, including for Project Tosaigh, there is intensive engagement on the advancement of a delivery pipeline for 1,855 cost-rental houses and apartments, with an additional pipeline also being explored. The figures I am giving are for actual delivery and future delivery of affordable, cost-rental and Project Tosaigh homes for families.
