In Sligo to address the @icsh_ie conference this morning. Drawing on various @ESRIDublin studies, I discussed the overall economic situation, the government financing position, housing needs, and the role of social housing for low income groups. Thanks for the invite @icsh_ie
Structural #housing affordability issues for bottom 40%. Role for #AHB sector here. 20% #socialhousing #costrental target should be a floor not ceiling. Getting ratio of #housing cost to income right reduces economic and social costs to society. @otoolecm @ESRIDublin #icsh2024
