Housing Provision
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-15
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

It deals mainly with the planning code, not necessarily the OPR or other issues. We will revert to the Deputy on this.
Deputy McAuliffe raised the issue of Croí Cónaithe. I agree with him that if opportunities arise in the context of interest rate increases, the Land Development Agency should take over sites for use for cost-rental or other initiatives.
Deputy McDonald raised the issue of housing output this year. I will revert to her with the specifics. I do not accept there is a catastrophic failure. Housing for All is making a difference. It is catching up on a lot of the construction that did not take place in previous years. A huge effort is being made.
I will come back to Deputy O'Callaghan on his remarks. With respect, I did not read the article concerned.
