485. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage his plans to expand the Land Development Agency’s geographical area of operation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35552/25]
View answerThe Land Development Agency has assembled and developed a body of skills and expertise, unparalleled within the State sector, in development of large scale housing projects and high density typologies/ apartments, and strategic land assembly and master planning of large scale sites/areas and city quarters.
The Government will ensure that this skillset is made available to all local authorities that seek to develop projects where the LDA’s expertise can add real value to unlock sites of scale in appropriate locations all over the country.
This expansion of the Agency's area of operations is part of a wider expansion of the LDA's role and remit as a provider and enabler of housing in communities all over Ireland.
