All units disposed of under the 1999 Affordable Housing Scheme, Part V of the Planning and Development Act 2000-2004 and the Affordable Housing initiative are sold at less than market value to eligible applicants. My Department does not compile data on the value of the discount applying to these units.
Information on the number of units provided under the various affordable housing schemes 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.
