Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 March 2026
989. Deputy James Geoghegan asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the position regarding any recent tripartite engagements between his Department, Dublin City Council and the developers of the Poolbeg SDZ area to reach an agreement on the delivery of affordable housing; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18280/26]
View answerA condition of the planning scheme for the Poolbeg SDZ, as modified by An Bord Pleanála in April 2019, is the provision of 15% social and affordable homes on this site in addition to the 10% statutory social housing requirement under Part V arrangements.
As things stand, I understand that Dublin City Council and the developers have concluded the negotiations on the Part V agreement for this site. With regard to delivery of affordable housing in accordance with the terms of the SDZ condition, I am advised that the two parties are not in a position to comment further until an agreement is finalised.
