Housing Provision
Dail Éireann — 2022-03-03
============================================================

Peter Burke (FG), Longford-Westmeath

Housing for All sets out a projected supply of affordable and cost-rental homes between 2022 and 2030, with an average of approximately 6,000 affordable homes to be made available for purchase or rent. Affordable homes for purchase will be made available through a combination of the first home scheme, the local authority affordable purchase scheme and LDA delivery. A housing delivery action plan prepared by each local authority will underpin delivery to 2026. The four Dublin authorities submitted the first iteration of their plans in December and our officials have now met with each authority. I expect the final delivery action plans to be published in quarter 2, containing projected delivery to 2026.
The first home scheme will be available from the second half of this year. This demand-led scheme targets 1,750 supports for 2022. We expect that a significant proportion of these will be located in the Dublin area, proportionate to the newly constructed homes market.
