Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 27 March 2025
293. Deputy Peter 'Chap' Cleere asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the number of new homes completed in counties Carlow and Kilkenny in 2024; his expectations for 2025; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14816/25]
View answerNew dwelling completions data are published by the CSO on a quarterly basis and are available on its website at www.cso.ie.
Completions disaggregated by dwelling type (scheme house, single house, apartment) are available at local authority level at data.cso.ie/table/NDQ06.
My Department does not forecast new home completions in any year.
Sectoral commentators are forecasting a wide range for new home completions this year, with published forecasts suggesting somewhere between 32,000 to 38,000 new homes might be delivered this year. These forecasts will fluctuate as the year progresses, with a more certain picture likely only emerging towards year-end.
