The information sought in respect of funding provided for capital and current housing programmes to each of the local authorities in the Greater Dublin Area in 2016 and to date in 2017, is set out in the following table. The data includes amounts self-funded by these local authorities from surplus Local Property Tax receipts.

There is no precise amount of funding notified to individual local authorities for the delivery of housing in a particular year as my Department provides funding to local authorities as social housing projects are advanced.
