The Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme (SHCEP) supports the delivery of social housing by, inter alia, providing financial support to local authorities for the leasing of houses and apartments. Dwellings under the scheme come from a number of different sources including private owners, Part V and Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs).

Details of the number of units and funding of the Social Housing Leasing Programme to end Q2 2023 can be found on my Department's website at the following links:

Number of units -assets.gov.ie/253731/385ff381-c907-4698-aeff-097f6ca0b319.xlsx

Funding - assets.gov.ie/99984/d10e5f7c-a0f5-40ab-9ccf-0559e22f3afa.xlsx

The long-term leasing scheme includes properties leased by AHBs directly, leased by local authorities from private owners and Enhanced leasing.

Data for Q3 2023 is currently being compiled.
