During March, my Department held Housing Action Plan meetings with all housing authorities. The purpose of these meetings was to discuss the direction and content of authorities' proposed housing investment programmes and particularly to consider the prioritisation of projects and the reconfiguration of the Social Housing Investment Programme as a whole, so that it can be sustained and consolidated in the changing economic and budgetary circumstances.

On foot of information furnished in the course of this round of Action Plan meetings, and taking account of the funding provided in the Revised Estimates for the Public Service 2009, I am finalising this year's Social Housing Investment Programme allocations, which will issue shortly.

The project referred to in the question will be considered in the context of Dublin City Council's overall Social Housing Investment Programme.
