Housing Policy
Dail Éireann — 2022-09-28
============================================================

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

The scheme is badly designed. The targets are too low and it only applies to a small number of towns. Like the repair and lease and buy and renew schemes, it will come back not having delivered its targets. My question is this: why only 600 units a year? What guarantee is there that people will be able to buy and renovate vacant and derelict properties on €20,000 or €30,000 of a grant?
