Nearly 30,000 new homes were completed in Ireland last year, new figures from the Central Statistics Office show.
Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien praised the news, saying that it was the “highest annual housing supply in over a decade” and that the Government’s Housing for All target for 2022 had been reached.
However, the figures were published just a day after Taoiseach Leo Varadkar told the Dáil that the Government had missed its 2022 social housing target.
