Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 16 - Tailte Éireann (Revised)
Vote 23 - An Coimisiún Toghcháin (Revised)
Vote 34 - Housing, Local Government and Heritage (Revised)
(13 Jun 2024)

Eoin Ó Broin: Okay. My final question is based on what the Minister said. For example, local authority funding on the capital assistance scheme, CAS, cost rental equity loan, CREL, scheme, the affordable housing fund and the first home scheme is chronically underspent every year. Will this year be the first year the money for those programmes will be spent in the full year?

Eoin Ó Broin: The Minister mentioned the first home scheme. On the capital funding for local authorities, namely CAS, the affordable housing fund and CREL, on the basis of what the Minister has seen so far, is he saying this will be the first year that what was allocated in the AEV and REV will be spent in full?

Eoin Ó Broin: I look forward to reading it.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Housing for All: Discussion (13 Jun 2024)

Eoin Ó Broin: I thank the Minister for his opening statement. The facts are that his plan is not working and that he carefully avoided all the evidence which shows that it is not. House prices have never been higher in the history of the State, making it increasingly difficult for people to buy their own homes. Interest rate cuts that we expect to come quite soon are likely to fuel further house price...

Eoin Ó Broin: -----unable to access social housing or market housing. These were households on incomes between €50,000 and €70,000. However, in terms of the affordable housing fund, the cost-rental equity loan and the LDA, increasingly, those people are being priced out of the Department's schemes. Is the Minister concerned at the rising cost of affordable rents and affordable purchase...

Eoin Ó Broin: Is the Minister concerned at the costs under his schemes? Has he any new proposals to bring those costs down so people on between €50,000 and €70,000 can get onto them? Those people are being blocked at present because the costs are too high.
