I propose to take Questions Nos. 251 to 255, inclusive, together.
The Government has set out ambitious targets for the delivery of social housing supports over the lifetime of Rebuilding Ireland. Last year, over 18,300 social housing supports were provided across a range of delivery programmes. Within this, preliminary data shows that around 5,280 new social houses were either purchased, leased, remediated or built by local authorities and approved housing bodies across the country using a range of funding mechanisms and delivery programmes.
My Department publishes a wide range of statistical information on housing delivery and these are available on the Department’s website at the following link: . The information on the website is up to date, as of the end of quarter 3 2016, and information for the full year of 2016 is currently being finalised and will be published shortly.
