My Department provides funding under the Voids Programme to assist local authorities in bringing vacant local authority housing stock back to productive use. Earlier this year, local authorities, including Galway City and County Councils, submitted to my Department details of their work proposals and related funding requirements for this programme in 2018. These proposals are currently been evaluated and funding allocations will be confirmed to the local authorities shortly.
