QUESTION NO. 5
QUESTION: Councillor Carly Bailey
That this committee requests a report that looks at the average waiting time for individuals and families on the SDCC social housing list in the Rathfarnham-Templeogue and seperately the Firhouse-Bohernabreena LEAs (including those on the HAP transfer lists but excluding those on RAS or in receipt of housing payments and are in rented accommodation, and those on either priority or transfer lists) who in need of either a 1 bed, 2 bed, 3 bed or 4 bed housing units over the last 5 years, how these waiting times compare with other LEAs and a statement to be made on future delivery targets for both LEAs.
REPLY:
The data below was presented to a recent Housing SPC meeting and outlines the average waiting time by bedroom size and the allocations by LEA, for all allocations completed in 2021. It also gives the number of adults/children housed through those allocations by bedroom size. Analysis of waiting times by LEA will be completed in the next quarter and can be presented to ACMs when complete.
