James Browne (FF), Wexford

I thank the Deputy for raising the important issue of affordable housing. I also thank him for his regular engagement with me on the issue of how we can develop further affordable housing. In terms of the pipeline of delivery in Cork city, since the launch of Housing for All until the end of quarter 4 in 2024, 747 affordable housing solutions have been delivered via a range of delivery partners. To date approval has been given for ten projects in Cork city under the affordable housing fund, which will deliver 465 affordable purchase homes. In addition, ten approved housing body projects have been approved to date under the cost-rental equity loan scheme, with the potential to deliver 978 homes by 2027. Through the LDA's market engagement initiative, Project Tosaigh, 302 homes are expected to be delivered in 2025 at Horgan's Quay and a further 337 are expected to be delivered at Marina Depot in 2027, consisting of a mix of cost and social housing. I want to see more affordable homes being delivered in Cork city and the wider Cork area.
