525. Deputy Ken O'Flynn asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if his Department will work with the Central Statistics Office and the Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment to establish residential construction productivity indicators aligned with the targets in Delivering Homes, Building Communities 2025–2030; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [65727/25]
View answerMy Department is involved in regular collaboration with the Central Statistics Office (CSO) and the Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment (DETE), alongside other government departments, in developing indicators relating to housing data. One such recent area of collaboration is in relation to developing insights on the scale and variance of use of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) for new residential dwellings. This will be an important measure of productivity in the sector, as MMC has the potential to transform the efficiency of house building in Ireland.
