After the last summit in January, initial estimates by local authorities, in key target locations, identified the potential for delivery of around 4,000 affordable homes from local authority sites. Working with local authorities, my department’s Housing Delivery Office has identified lands capable of delivering over 10,000 homes (subject to planning etc.) of which a significant number will be affordable in those key target areas where the affordability pressures are most acute (including Dublin; GDA; Cork and Galway cities) and additional lands that potentially have capacity to deliver further significant new housing, once enabling infrastructure and viability issues are resolved.
