Chapter 6: Central Government Funding of Local Authorities (1 Jun 2023) Verona Murphy: On 25 April, a scheme was announced where the Department is to spend three quarters of a billion euro it believes will commence the building of 6,000 apartments where there are grants of planning but they have not commenced. I want to see the cost-benefit analysis. Let me give Mr. Doyle my cost-benefit analysis. If the Department was to do what I have been saying for three years, as well...

Chapter 6: Central Government Funding of Local Authorities (1 Jun 2023) Verona Murphy: Cost rental will not be delivered by this scheme. Mr. Doyle is not listening to what I am telling him. Is Mr. Doyle telling me that we have to spend €6 billion of the taxpayers' money to make cost rental work?

Chapter 6: Central Government Funding of Local Authorities (1 Jun 2023) Verona Murphy: By the time the Department commences 6,000 apartments, it will cost €6 billion. The Department is talking about putting €750 million into cost rental. The Department has already said it will see the commencement of 6,000 apartments. That is what it costs. If a person is developing apartments around the towns in the country or in Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway, the...

Chapter 6: Central Government Funding of Local Authorities (1 Jun 2023) Verona Murphy: Okay. Rather than get bogged down, what I and many others have been stating for three years is that the planning policy is the issue. You can go away from the war in Ukraine, interest rates and construction inflation. Nothing has changed, and nothing has changed since Mr. Doyle was here last year, except that the Department most certainly will not meet its targets this year, and if the...

Own-door is not the important issue, if you were to listen to what anybody who is building or who is responsible for building has said. How many grants of planning have we for own-door that have not commenced?

Nobody has advocated the Department's guidelines and what it has produced, which astounded me. I was promised by the Minister that the problem would be rectified. When I received the document, I had to vote no confidence because it is unbelievable we are in a position where we are flush with money and cannot spend it. Now there is...
