Written answers

Government recently agreed to increase the baseline income thresholds by €5,000 for all local authorities with effect from 1 January 2023.

My Department has also recently begun work to scope options for a new social housing income eligibility model and I expect proposals for a new model to be submitted for my consideration in Q1 2023. Pending completion of this work, it would be inappropriate to make any further changes to the income thresholds.

Question No. 167 answered with Question No. 138.
