The site in question was approved for inclusion under the Land Aggregation Scheme, and the Housing Finance Agency loan on it was redeemed by my Department in October 2011, following which the process of transferring the land from Limerick County Council to Housing and Sustainable Communities (HSC) Ltd was commenced.

My Department understands that the transfer process from Limerick County Council to HSC Ltd is currently at an advanced stage. Once the transfer has been completed HSC Ltd will have responsibility for managing the land and has undertaken to contact the approved housing body in this context. My Department will write to the approved housing body in this regard and a copy will be provided to the Deputy.
