PQ 1190
1190. Deputy Michael Lowry asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will address the disparity between the Local Authority Home Loan property price thresholds in counties such as Tipperary currently capped at €275,000 and the actual cost of purchasing even modest new homes on the market (details supplied) priced at €295,000, which effectively excludes many first-time buyers from access to the scheme; and if he will review and adjust these thresholds so that they are aligned with real market conditions.
