Affordable Housing Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2021-06-04
============================================================

Fintan Warfield (SF), Cultural and Educational Panel

I oppose section 8. I want the Minister of State to clarify if, in this section, "open market dwelling" means turnkey dwellings. I am happy to withdraw my opposition if the answer to that question is "Yes". However, if this section is about giving the site services fund to private developers, I will not support the section. Does "open market dwelling" refer to turnkeys in this section? We want the Minister of State to clarify that. Is this section to allow approved housing bodies to purchase turnkey developments? I would be okay with that.
