Housing Schemes
Dail Éireann — 2024-10-22
============================================================

David Stanton (FG), Cork East

Local authorities can identify houses that are derelict and go down the compulsory purchase order, CPO, route. Does the Minister have any indication of how many houses might be eligible for the vacant property grant? Is there any link between what the local authorities are doing in identifying vacant properties and the vacant property tax, which might act as an incentive for people to avail of the grant and bring properties back into use?
