In October 2023 My Department provided funding approval for the Turnkey delivery of 32 Social Housing units that are being developed by O’Chualain for Tuath Housing Association. I am advised by DCC that these units are expected to deliver in June 2026.

I am also advised by DCC that this scheme is specifically aimed at older persons listed on the DCC social housing waiting list. This project will deliver 32 wheelchair accessible units within a five story block of apartments with passenger lift access, open space areas for residents and a community room for residents to gather and socialise.

This scheme has been designed with older persons independent living in mind, giving an option for residents to engage with other residents at the provided community area or enjoy their own independent living space.

My Department is not in a position, at this time, to release costs in relation to this development as they are commercially sensitive
