1720. Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the number of new-build social homes delivered in each county in each of the years 2021 to date in 2026, including delivery per head of population, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [56906/26]

My Department publishes comprehensive programme-level statistics on a quarterly basis on social housing delivery activity by local authorities and Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) in each local authority. These statistics provide delivery data at local authority level, including data on housing delivery vs targets. Data is available to the end of Q1 2026 and is published on the statistics page of my Department’s website at the following link: https://www.gov.ie/en/collection/6060e-overall-social-housing-provision/ .

Typically social housing delivery accelerates as the year the progresses, with most delivery occurring in the last quarter each year.

My Department also publishes the Social Housing Construction Status Report (CSR), which provides details of social housing developments and their location that have been completed, are under construction or are progressing through the various stages of the design and tender processes. The most recent publication was for Quarter 1 2026. All CSRs are available at the following link: https://www.gov.ie/en/collection/cb885-social-housing-construction-projects-status-reports/

A version of the CSR file can also be downloaded for analysis by local authority, location etc. at this link: https://opendata.housing.gov.ie/dataset/social-housing-construction-status-report-q1-2026

Further to this, all local authorities have published their Housing Delivery Action Plans (HDAPs) for the period 2022 to 2026 on their websites. These action plans set out how the local authorities will meet their current housing targets.

Under the new housing plan local authorities will prepare a new HDAP setting out their planned delivery of social housing to 2030. In preparing their HDAP, the local authorities will reflect local need to ensure the right mix of homes to respond to needs and priorities. It is expected that new HDAPs will be in place by Q4 2026.

Further housing data, including data on planning permissions, commencements, new dwelling completions and delivery per head of population is published by the Central Statistics Office (CSO) on a quarterly basis and is available on the CSO website at Housing Hub - Central Statistics Office.
