I have not exercised the powers granted to me under section 9(1) of the the Land Development Agency Act 2021 to report to me on their progress towards achieving the purposes of the Act.

Under Section 9(2) of the Land Development Agency Act, the Land Development Agency will be required to provide me with a report on their progress towards achieving the purposes of the Act not later than 31 March 2024.

Upon receipt of this report, and any others requested under Section 9 of the Act, I will lay them before the Oireachtas within 30 days of their receipt in accordance with Section 9(5) of the Act.

My Department remains in regular contact with the Land Development Agency on their progress towards the purposes of the Act. My Department meets with the LDA on a quarterly basis to monitor governance arrangements and on a monthly basis to co-ordinate the delivery of affordable housing with other programmes and agencies in the sector.
