QUESTION NO. 13

QUESTION: Councillor M. Johansson

To ask the Chief Executive to outline the average waiting time from application to approval for the Rebuilding Ireland Home Loan scheme, and to clarify if there were any delays in approvals due to lack of funding approval by central government?

REPLY:

The average waiting time from application date to approval for the Rebuilding Ireland Home Loan scheme with this Council in 2018 was 13 weeks.

The time frame for processing and approving such applications is contingent on a number of factors including the applicant(s) submitting supporting documentation and clarifying information contained on applications, the scheduling of credit committee meetings, notification of approvals for funding for the scheme etc.
