View answerDetails on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each local authority administrative area is provided in the annual statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments (SSHA).
The most recently published summary for all counties, conducted in November 2024, is available on my Department's website, along with all summaries since 2011 at www.gov.ie/en/collection/62486-summary-of-social-housing-assessments/.
Details of on the citizenship of the main applicant qualified for social housing support for each local authority are included in tables 2.9 and A1.9 in the report.
The SSHA 2025 process is currently underway and I expect to publish the summary report before the end of Q1 2026.
