420. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government the total number of contracts approved by his Department to be signed by the Housing Agency under the croí cónaithe scheme; the number of units involved in each contract; and a timeline for when it is expected that these units will be completed, broken down by scheme.

I can confirm that I have approved two proposals to date under the Croí Cónaithe Cities Scheme for the delivery of 121 units in total. The table below provides the details for each.

Scheme No. of units Scheduled completion date
Dublin 53 31/12/2025
Cork 68 30/11/2025

Contracts in respect of the Dublin proposal have been signed and I expect the contracts relating to the Cork proposal to be signed in the coming days.

Further proposals, from the initial call for Expressions of Interest, remain under consideration by the Housing Agency and are being progressed, with further requests for approvals expected shortly.  A second call for proposals is presently underway with a deadline of 22 September 2023 for receipt of applications.
