Co-operative view on the review of Rebuilding Ireland
Co-operative Housing Ireland has made a submission to the Department of Housing, Planning, and Local Government (DHPLG) on the review of Rebuilding Ireland calling for a radical review of Irish housing policy. In the submission, which can be accessed here, we propose:
Recognising the need for a radically different long-term approach to housing provision and developing a comprehensive new plan to meet this need
Expanding the objectives of the plan to recognise the right of every household to secure, decent, affordable accommodation
Sustaining and improving housing quality standards in terms of space and environmental performance
Phasing out the practice of providing social housing through the private rental sector
Achieving meaningful security of tenure by reviewing the reasons provided for terminating tenancies
Ending the practice of housing homeless families in emergency accommodation through an expansion of social housing provision
Radically re-assessing the policy objectives around mixed tenure housing and the scale of social housing provision
Supporting the capacity of AHBs and reviewing the Payment and Availability Agreement
Developing a more active approach to the management development lands
Exploring a range of fiscal measures that could boost supply and support affordability
Urgently supporting innovation in rental provision including affordable rental and co-housing
Developing a more proactive approach to supporting the re-use of vacant properties
