The Bill is seeking to increase the supply of housing, especially affordable and social housing, by ensuring that public land not being utilised or being under-utilised is made available for housing. I move amendment No. 3: In page 8, lines 11 and 12, to delete “housing in the State and in particular affordable and” and substitute “public and affordable housing in the State and in particular”.
Local authorities did not have the tools to provide affordable housing or 100% public housing on public land. It will be social and affordable and it is clear from the Bill that the LDA will be delivering affordable, public and social housing on public land.
