This year my Department has allocated in excess of €3 million to North Tipperary County Council in respect of the measures included in the Social Housing Investment Programme for 2013. This includes €273,000 for the purchase of houses in Nenagh and Roscrea. Having regard to the high level of commitments under the housing programme at this time my Department is not in a position to approve further funding for the purchase of houses in Ashbury, Roscrea.
