Homelessness Report November 2019

Homelessness data

Official homelessness data is produced by local authorities through the Pathway Accommodation and Support System (PASS). PASS was rolled-out nationally during the course of 2013.

The Department’s official homelessness statistics are published on a monthly basis and refer to the number of homeless persons accommodated in emergency accommodation funded and overseen by housing authorities during a specific count week, typically the last full week of the month. The reports are produced through the Pathway Accommodation & Support System (PASS), collated on a regional basis and compiled and published by the Department. Homelessness reporting commenced in this format in 2014. The format of the data may change or vary over time due to administrative and/or technology changes and improvements.

The administration of homeless services is organised across nine administrative regions, with one local authority in each of the regions, “the lead authority”, having overall responsibility for the disbursement of Exchequer funding. In each region a Joint Homelessness Consultative Forum exists which includes representation from the relevant State and non-governmental organisations involved in the delivery of homeless services in a particular region. Delegated arrangements are governed by an annually agreed protocol between the Department and the lead authority in each region. These protocols set out the arrangements, responsibilities and financial/performance data reporting requirements for the delegation of funding from the Department.

Under Sections 38 and 39 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 a statutory Management Group exists for each regional forum. This is comprised of representatives from the relevant housing authorities and the Health Service Executive, and it is the responsibility of the Management Group to consider issues around the need for homeless services and to plan for the implementation, funding and co-ordination of such services.

In relation to the terms used in the report for the accommodation types see explanation below:
PEA - Private Emergency Accommodation: this may include hotels, B&Bs and other residential facilities that are used on an emergency basis. Supports are provided to services users on a visiting supports basis.
STA - Supported Temporary Accommodation: accommodation, including family hubs, hostels, with onsite professional support.
TEA - Temporary Emergency Accommodation: emergency accommodation with no (or minimal) support

ESB Connections  by sector quarterly

Local authority ESB Connections do not include second-hand houses acquired by them. New units acquired under Part V, Planning & Development Acts 2000-2008 for local authority rental purposes are included.
Voluntary & co-operative housing consists of housing provided under the capital loan & subsidy and capital assistance schemes. Data on this variable was not available until 1993.
ESB Connections data series are based on the number of new dwellings connected by ESB Networks to the electricity supply and may not accord precisely with local authority boundaries. These represent the number of homes completed and available, and do not reflect any work-in progress.
For 2005Q1, direct comparisons cannot be made with 2006, as those figures included some units built in 2005. ESB Networks have indicated that there was a higher backlog in work-in-progress in 2005 than usual ( estimated as being in the region of 5,000 units). This backlog was cleared through the connection of an additional 2,000 houses in Quarter 1 2006 and 3,000 houses in Quarter 2 2006. Due to circumstances beyond the Department's control it has not been possible to obtain a separate set of figures for the first two quarters of 2005.
Direct comparisons cannot be made between pre 2009 and post 2010 data onwards. Up to 2010, completions relating to long term voids and demountables were included as new build completions.
For 2009Q1, 2011Q1 and 2011 Q3, discrepencies in these quarters is explained in the Qtrly hse compls-sector county tab

Construction status report 2016 for Quarter 4

Local Authorities, Approved Housing Bodies, the Housing Agency and the D/HPC&LG have been advancing a suite of social housing schemes, through a range of delivery mechanisms and programmes. This dataset provides a comprehensive list of these social housing schemes that are currently advancing nationwide and in some cases those that have been delivered in 2016. The dataset shows the status of the schemes at of the end of Q4 2016. This dataset of schemes includes details of all construction projects, broken down by programme and local authority, which will deliver new and much needed additional social housing stock to alleviate the current shortage of social housing. This delivery will include construction by Local Authorities and Approved Housing Bodies, Regeneration Projects, Capital Assistance Schemes, as well as Rapid Delivery projects, and projects funded under the Capital Advance and Leasing Facility. It is envisaged that the dataset will be updated on a quarterly basis in conjunction with the publication of the Quarterly Progress Reports on implementation of Rebuilding Ireland – an Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness.

Average Second Hand House Price by Quarter

Average house prices are derived from data supplied by the mortgage lending agencies on loans approved by them rather than loans paid. In comparing house prices figures from one period to another, account should be taken of the fact that changes in the mix of houses (incl apartments) will affect the average figures.
The most current data is published on these sheets. Previously published data may be subject to revision. Any change from the originally published data will be highlighted by a comment on the cell in question. These comments will be maintained for at least a year after the date of the value change.

ESRI Population Projections by Local Authority

Population projection by scenario, year of age and local authority, for the 4 scenarios described in the project methodology for years 2017-2040.
https://www.esri.ie/publications/regional-demographics-and-structural-housing-demand-at-a-county-level

The 4 scenarios are:

Baseline/Business as usual – based on medium term projections for the economy with an underlying assumption that net inwards migration would converge to 15,000 p.a. by 2024 and remain at that level throughout the projection horizon.

50:50 City – based on a similar outlook in terms of net inwards migration but whereby population growth is distributed in line with the objectives of the National Planning Framework (See National Policy Objectives 1a and 2a of https://npf.ie/wp-content/uploads/Project-Ireland-2040-NPF.pdf)  

High Migration – assumes that net inwards migration stays at an elevated level throughout the projection horizon (net inwards migration of 30,000 p.a)

Low Migration -  assumes that net inwards migration falls to net inwards migration of 5,000 by 2022 before converging back to the business as usual levels (i.e. net inwards migration of 15,000 p.a.)  by 2027 and remaining at that level thereafter.

Local Authority Loans Arrears by area Q1 2016

This is the first data released from the data collected under the Data Gathering Initiative whereby Local Authorities supply a detailed breakdown of their loan book by loan at the end of each month.
It replaces a survey of Local Authorities. As such there may be inconsistencies with the data reported under the old methodology.				
The data is therefore subject to revision in subsequent releases.

DETAILS  OF  LICENCES RELATED TO FIRE SAFETY IN  2016 for Oil Jetties

The Fire Services Act, 1981 sets out the rules and regulations for that the fire service works to.  The NDFEM provides support to the Local Authorities to make sure these rules and regulations are put in place and that health and safety is prioritised.  We provide funding to the fire service for the purchase of appliances and equipment.  We also support the fire service by running a national training programme and by publishing guidance on relevant matters and by setting general policy.

HAP Scheme 2014-2020

The Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) is currently available in all 31 local authority areas  and  to  homeless  households  in  the  Dublin  local  authorities  under  the Homeless HAP pilot. 

The HAP scheme is provided under Part 4 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2014.
Once transferred from Rent Supplement to HAP, households are in receipt of a much more secure form of state support and crucially the linkage between their employment status and their housing need is broken. They can work full-time.
