On 18 November, the Government published its new housing plan-Delivering Homes, Building Communities: An Action Plan on Housing Supply and Targeting Homelessness, 2025-20302.
The launch took at place at the Donore Project in Dublin where over 500 new social and affordable homes are under construction.
Building on the foundations of Housing for All, with 137,000 homes built since the beginning of 2021, and informed by the work of the Housing Commission, the new plan will empower the State, partners and the private sector to further play a critical part in delivery.
Key elements of the plan:
- 300,000 homes to be delivered during lifetime of the plan.
- it is backed by unprecedented investment in water, energy and transport infrastructure, as well as regulatory reform, zoning and tax measures.
- record state investment to deliver 90,000 affordable supports, 72,000 social homes, and target homelessness.
- over €9 billion capital funding for housing in 2026 alone.
