QUESTION NO. 16

QUESTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin

To ask the Chief Executive to explain the rationale for providing window and door upgrades to certain houses on a road while others did not receive similar improvements.

REPLY:

We have commenced a programme of periodic property inspections, whereby properties will be inspected on a 5-year cycle. The findings of the surveys will feed into an ongoing multi-annual Stock Investment Programme which will include the window and door replacement with the aim to reduce the current level of reactive maintenance requests and to improve the overall value for money and enhanced delivery of the service to tenants.

Properties identified with windows and doors in 'Poor' or 'Very Poor' condition are prioritised and subsequently referred to the planned maintenance team for inclusion in the windows and doors works programme.
