392. Deputy David Cullinane asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the number of new social housing homes delivered in County Waterford in each year from 2020 to 2025, and the pipeline for 2026, in tabular form, by funding stream and-or acquisition type. [3008/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department publishes comprehensive programme-level statistics on a quarterly basis on social and affordable housing delivery activity by local authorities and Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) in each local authority, including Waterford. The data is broken down in many forms including funding streams and acquisition type. This data is available to the end of Q3 2025 and is published on the statistics page of my Department’s website (www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/).
My Department also publishes the Social Housing Construction Status Report (CSR), which provides details of social housing developments and their location that have been completed, are under construction or are progressing through the various stages of the design and tender processes. Data is collated at project level rather than individual unit level. The most recent publication was for Quarter 3 2025. All CSRs are available at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/cb885-social-housing-construction-projects-status-reports/.
The most recent Construction Status Report shows that there were 644 homes at various stages of design and procurement in Waterford at the end of Quarter 3 2025, including 132 homes onsite (SHIP x 535 units, CAS x 26 units, CALF x 83 units).
