Details on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each local authority administrative area is provided in the annual statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments (SSHA). The most recently published summary for all counties, conducted in November 2023, is available on my Department's website at www.gov.ie/en/collection/62486-summary-of-social-housing-assessments/.

The report shows that there were 2,256 households qualified for social housing in Cork County Council whose need was unmet in 2023. SSHA data is collected and collated at local authority level and therefore a breakdown of the numbers by electoral area is not provided.

The SSHA 2024 is currently being finalised and I expect to publish the summary report shortly.
