Housing crisis Ireland: Just four homes built per 1,000 people in Dublin last year

Only four homes were built per 1,000 people in Dublin last year, a new study has revealed.

Experts have slammed the National Planning Framework (NPF) saying it will "strangle Dublin's housing supply". The document, which has been described as "fundamentally flawed", determines how Ireland will develop over the long-term out to 2040.

A study by property advisor Savills Ireland revealed that there has been a large reduction of zoned residential land available for development within the Greater Dublin Area (Dublin, Meath, Kildare, Wicklow), which would have had the capacity to accommodate over 100,000 units. This is also equivalent to 10 years of housing supply, according to the firm's Residential Land Supply Study 2022.
