Expenditure on the Social Housing Leasing Initiative since it was introduced in 2009 came to just over €47.45 million to the end of January 2013. This includes an amount of €8.35 million, under the Capital Advance Leasing Facility, in repayable advances to Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs ). I have detailed below the cost per year to date. The estimated cost of leased units in 2013 (both existing units and new supply) is €29 million. Spending on CALF in 2013 will be dependent on project delivery.
