PQ 890
890. Deputy Brendan Smith asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will extend the timeline in relation to the issue of approval for an application under the vacant homes scheme and the completion date; if he is aware that this 13-month deadline is causing difficulties for some applicants due to the shortage of capacity in construction particularly for smaller contractors who are finding it extremely difficult in many instances to complete work on time; if he will extend the 13-month deadline, in view of the importance and value of this scheme and the potential to bring more houses back to habitable use; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
