Land Development Agency Bill 2021: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2021-07-12
============================================================

Fintan Warfield (SF), Cultural and Educational Panel

Our amendment No. 78 seeks to guarantee 100% social and affordable housing, rather than leave it to the Minister's discretion. While I support the sentiment of the Labour Party amendment No. 77, I am not inclined to support it. The percentages should strive to be 100% social and affordable but should be left to the discretion of each local authority, based on its assessment of local housing needs.
