I propose to take Questions Nos. 913, 914, 925 and 926 together.
My Department does not collect the data sought.
The Central Statistics Office publishes data in respect of residential property transactions by non-households, including international investment funds. The latest data available are for 2023 and can be accessed on the CSO website (data.cso.ie/table/HPA10).
The data are broken down by NACE classification of the purchasers, i.e. construction, real estate, financial and insurance, public/education/health. Though not not broken down further, the finance and insurance classification includes banks, trusts, pension and insurance funds, and holding companies.
