Yesterdays budget was about recognising that people are struggling & protecting people from the shocks being caused by cost of living spikes.

In their alternative housing budget they budgeted €302M for a tax credit which would cost €600M. They say they will deliver more social homes next year but base their costings on pre-2021 figures - before war, double digit inflation&supply chain issues

Their alternative budget abolishes three key supports for homebuyers: Help-to-Buy, First Home & Croí Conaithe which is a grant for buyers of vacant and derelict homes.

They say that 4,000 of the 20,000 public homes they are going to deliver next year will be from existing vacant & derelict housing stock. To do this they will need to CPO the homes, refurbish the homes, re-let and/or sell the homes – and they say they will do this in 2023.
Either SF know their numbers don’t add up & are happy to mislead people, or else they really have got their sums wrong. Either way they have to be honest with people.
#HousingforAll is the most detailed & comprehensive housing plan. It's taking hold & momentum is growing. Budget 2023 with it's €4.5bn of real investment, will deliver thousands affordable & social homes for people.
