I propose to take Questions Nos. 548 and 549 together.

Details of the number of housing units completed in each local authority area in each of the past ten years to 2006 and for the 6 months to end June 2007, have been published in my Department's Housing Statistics Bulletins, which are available in the Oireachtas Library, or on the Department's website at www.environ.ie.

Detailed information on alternative arrangements to the transfer of land within any proposed development, including the provision of social and affordable housing in specific housing developments, is not available in my Department and may be obtained from the relevant local authority. Composite figures on the yield of social and affordable housing under Part V arrangements are also available in the above mentioned Housing Statistics Bulletin.
