QUESTION NO. 1

QUESTION: Councillor M. Ward

"To ask the Chief Executive to give a statement on how many people are on Appliccant Sourced Housing Scheme and what the scheme entails ."

REPLY:

Applicant Sourced Housing Scheme (ASH) was a scheme where South Dublin County Council wrote to the applicants on the Housing List that were not on rent supplement for 18 months or more or were not in receipt of any rent assistance asking them if they wished to source accommodation for themselves.  If accommodation was sourced by the applicant South Dublin County Council would rent if from the landlord for them.

This scheme is no longer available.  All ASH tenants are now under RAS or Leasing schemes.
