Question 312: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the output in social housing measured against the Department's allocation for each local authority for the period 1995 to date; if each local authority has completed its housing needs analysis; the number on the housing lists for each local authority; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21398/05]

The financial allocations notified to each local authority under the main local authority housing construction-acquisition programme and the expenditure incurred in the years 1995 to 2004, which is funded by a combination of Exchequer capital grants and local authority internal capital receipts, are set out in the following table. Detailed information on the number of local authority house starts and completions by local authority for the years 1995 to 2003 is available in the various annual housing statistics bulletins, copies of which are available in the Oireachtas Library while the 2004 figures are available on the Department's website at www.environ.ie.
The recent triennial statutory assessment of need took place in March 2005 and it is anticipated that the results will be published in September of this year. The deadline for the return of information by local authorities to my Department was fixed for early May but some returns are still outstanding. It is not yet feasible to anticipate the overall level of housing need that will arise from this year's assessment.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 313 and 315 together.
It is a matter for local authorities in exercising their housing functions to act in a manner that is consistent with the norms of administrative and constitutional law, including the European Convention on Human Rights Act 2003. The Department will review any housing policy instruments for which we have responsibility where concerns are raised that they are incompatible with the Act.
