QUESTION NO. 8

QUESTION: Councillor D. Looney

To ask the Manager if there are discussions ongoing with NAMA for the allocation of properties currently under their control to SDCC within the area under the remit of this Committee, and to give details of any such properties.

REPLY:

The Council has not had direct discussions with NAMA in relation to the provision of social housing units.  There are general discussions between NAMA and the Housing Agency on the availability of vacant dwellings for social use and once details of these discussions become available the Members will be advised. 

It is anticipated that there will be eighteen properties in the first tranche for South Dublin County Council and that these properties will be made available under the Leasing Initiative.
