384. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government the financial supports he will provide to Donegal County Council to assist it to make the estimated 1,000 homes in its housing stock affected by mica defective concrete blocks safe for tenants; and if this financial support will be additional to financial supports Donegal County Council would expect under the public house building programme.

My Department provides significant funding support to local authorities in terms of various targeted housing stock upgrade programmes.
In respect of local authority housing stock in Donegal impacted by defective concrete blocks, further evaluation of the issue is being undertaken by Donegal County Council. Once this evaluation is complete my Department will consider the requirements necessary to resolve the matter with Donegal County Council.
