Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation

Patricia Ryan (SF), Kildare South

Page 62 of the programme for Government states that the Government will work on a package of reforms with approved housing bodies, AHBs. Will the Government consider allowing AHBs to sell their housing stock so that those residents who wish to, and are able to, put down permanent roots can do so? I also call on the Government to ensure money is ring-fenced so that housing units are not affected. I ask the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage to meet with residents of AHB housing in south Kildare. These residents feel they have been robbed of the opportunity to own their own homes. Promises were made to them and were not followed through.
