I propose to take Questions Nos. 83 and 105 together.

My Department publishes comprehensive programme level statistics on social housing delivery for each local authority on a quarterly basis. The statistics are currently available to the end of Quarter 3 2021. In the first nine months of the year, a total of 5,187 social homes were delivered, including 3,144 social homes delivered through new build, 1,576 social homes delivered through leasing programmes and 467 delivered through acquisitions. Details of individual local authority delivery are available on my Department’s website at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/

The Quarter 4 2021 statistical returns process is underway and the social housing outputs will be published in due course, in conjunction with the Quarter 4 Construction Status Report. In 2022, data on housing delivery will continue to be collated and published on a quarterly basis.
