Housing crisis 'on cusp of change'

THE housing crisis is “on the cusp of changing” with prices starting to level off or fall, the Taoiseach has claimed.

Leo Varadkar insisted measures introduced by the Government are having an impact on the accommodation shortage.

He also defended the Department of Housing after it emerged it had underspent its budget by €1billion between 2020 and 2022.

Mr Varadkar said this should be taken in the context of “record spending” by officials.

He said there was “no lack of political will” on the issue of housing but that the budget was “so big” the department struggled to spend it.
