Ireland ‘cannot move forward’ on meeting housing targets without revised framework, expert says
Ireland's housing targets are threatened by delays in updating the National Planning Framework (NPF), a key policy document guiding housing development. The outdated NPF hinders planning permission for needed housing, as demonstrated by a refused application in Greystones. A draft revision with new housing targets exists but awaits finalization and government approval. The government is considering measures like tax incentives and eased lending policies to boost housing supply.
