Section 477C of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 provides for the Help to Buy incentive (HTB), which came into effect on 19 July 2016 and is due to expire on 31 December 2019.

The information sought by the Deputy in terms of numbers of recipients of support by county is not immediately available. I will provide that information to the Deputy as soon as may be.
