707. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government further to Parliamentary Question No. 632 of 27 November 2018, if a specific proposal to amend the rules of the CALF funding stream to allow AHBs to provide cost rental accommodation was considered by his Department in the context of budget 2019; if it was proposed to Fianna Fáil during the budget negotiations; and the reason this proposal was not included in budget 2019 alongside the serviced sites fund to ensure that a greater volume of affordable rental accommodation could be provided alongside the affordable purchase housing that would be funded by the serviced sites fund.

The position in this matter is set out in my replies to Parliamentary Question No. 243 of 21 November 2018 and Parliamentary Question No. 632 of 27 November 2018. It should be noted that the Serviced Site Fund can be used to support the delivery of both affordable housing for purchase and cost rental accommodation.
