- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Cian O'Callaghan: The Social Democrats certainly will not be opposing these amendments. On the Land Development Agency, there is a massive gap between the initial promise put forward by Fine Gael's then Minister for housing, Eoghan Murphy, for what the Land Development Agency would deliver in terms of housing and what has transpired in the six years since then. I invite the Minister of State to speak about...
- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Alan Dillon: I thank the Deputies for their contributions. I am glad there is no dissent or opposition to the amendments being brought forward. The additional funds will secure the delivery of the LDA's 2024-28 business plan, under which there is projected delivery of up to 12,900 homes by 2028. A large pipeline of further direct delivery homes is being developed for completion in the period from...
- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I am happy enough to support this extra capital going towards the LDA, but I would rather that the LDA were something other than what it is. We have argued for some time it should be a fully fledged State construction company.

- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Sinn Féin is not opposing the amendment. However, I must say that a number of the justifications used by the Minister of State in describing the amendment are not factually correct. I would like to give him the opportunity to clarify some of the aspects behind this very specific amendment given that it is a very significant amount of money. The LDA does not have access to over...
