I propose to take Questions Nos. 205 and 206 together.
I am advised by Revenue that the number of help-to-buy claims approved since 1 July 2020, broken down by county, are as set out in the table below, along with the number of applicants associated with these claims. These figures include data in relation to both purchases and self-builds. Also included is the ‘Number of Claims by ‘Homebuyers’ (Excluding Self-Builds)’ broken down by county, which is the number of these claims relating to purchases, therefore it excludes claims in relation to self-builds.
