Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Eoin Ó Broin: I thank the witnesses for their presentations. I wish to acknowledge the very significant work they and their teams do, particularly in the housing and homelessness section. It is not lost on members of the committee that often that very significant work at the front line goes unacknowledged. I want to convey my thanks and my party's thanks to their staff. I wish to discuss the targets....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Eoin Ó Broin: Does Mr. O'Reilly know roughly how many new households come onto the housing list each year? Obviously, it is not just about the total number of people who need housing now but also the emerging need. Is that a calculation the Department asks the council to factor in when working out the targets?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Eoin Ó Broin: Perfect. What about in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Eoin Ó Broin: Would it be fair to say in the case of both councils that the targets that have been set will meet about half of the total current need but not take into account emerging need as we go? For Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, it is a little higher for social housing. If there are 25,000 households in need of social housing, and the target is higher than the 9,000 set by the Department, it will be...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Eoin Ó Broin: Is there a possibility in either council that even with the delivery of those targets, challenging and all as they are, the gross need at the end of, say, 2026 could be similar to what it is now because the total number of people looking for social housing in both local authority areas is growing? Therefore, while something will be taken off the HAP transfer list, gross need could be not far...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (11 Oct 2022)

On the affordable target for Dublin City Council, between it, the approved housing bodies and the LDA, the figure is 4,000 affordable homes to 2026, or 800 homes a year, although they will not get to them until 2024 or 2025. The figure for Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council is 1,549. Given the...
