I propose to take Questions Nos. 314 and 315 together.
From the launch of Housing for All in 2021 to the end Q2 2025, a total of 4,527 Cost Rental homes were delivered via Approved Housing Bodies, Local Authorities, the Land Development Agency (LDA), and through the Cost Rental Tenant-in-Situ Scheme. A breakdown by delivery stream and Local Authority area is provided at the link below.
My Department does not hold a running figure for the current number of active tenancies across every home in the Cost Rental sector. The occupancy rate will not be at 100%, due to the intermittent turnover of tenants and re-letting of existing homes, but all parties work to ensure that vacancy is kept to a minimum in order to utilise the homes efficiently and secure the financial foundations of developments.
My Department regularly publishes programme-level statistics on affordable housing delivery activity by Local Authorities, and by delivery partners in each Local Authority area. Data for 2022 up to Q2 2025 is published on my Department’s website, at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/department-of-housing-local-government-and-heritage/collections/overall-social-and-affordable-housing-provision/
