My Department issued provisional approval for funding in relation to the acquisition and refurbishment of eleven housing units at Erindale Heights, Ballyshannon, on 15 June 2015. This approval grants 30% support under the Capital Advance Leasing Facility (CALF) amounting to €292,155 to an approved housing body for the completion of this work. In addition, approval was also issued for support under the Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme in respect of an annual availability payment of €54,648 over a period of 30 years. My understanding is that a programme of works is being finalised by the approved housing body, and on that basis, a recoupment claim has yet to be received by my Department from Donegal County Council in respect of this project.
