Information to end September 2005 on the number of social and affordable housing units acquired under Part V of the Planning and Development Acts 2000-04 in each local authority area is published in my Department's housing statistics bulletins, copies of which are available in the Oireachtas Library and also on the Department's website at www.environ.ie.

Provisional end-year data for 2005 indicate that 1,371 social and affordable units had been acquired by local authorities through Part V arrangements. The information requested on a number of specific areas is set out in the following table.
