Data on the number of houses built by type of dwelling for each year from 1997 to 2005 are published in the Annual Housing Statistics Bulletins, which are available in the Oireachtas library or on the Department's website at www.environ.ie.

Since 2005, the type of dwelling classification has changed, and my Department is now provided with the number of individual houses, scheme houses (two or more houses), and apartments.

Details in respect of years 2005 and 2006, which have also been published on the website, are provided in the following table.
