In accordance with Section 21 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 2009, I directed all housing authorities to carry out a summary of the social housing assessments carried out in their administrative areas as at 7 May, 2013. Results from this assessment will be available later this month. The previous summary of social housing assessments was carried out as at 31 March, 2011, and found that there were 98,318 households on local authority waiting lists. The full results of that assessment, including breakdowns by each local authority, are available on on my Department’s website and the Housing Agency’s website
