Government recently agreed to increase the baseline income thresholds by €5,000 for all local authorities with effect from 1 January 2023.

My Department has also recently begun work to scope options for a new social housing income eligibility model and I expect proposals for a new model to be submitted for my consideration in Q1 2023. Pending completion of this work, it would be inappropriate to make any further changes to the income thresholds.
