What does the #PFG do about #Homelessness? Every one of the 1,339 families in emergency accommodation want secure, permanent affordable housing. The solution is social housing. #VoteGreenPFG #PFG
And that is what the #GreenPFG provides - an increase of over 50,000 in the social housing stock in Ireland.

10,000 new social homes every year represents a major increase on the 5,771 built last year.

50,000 new social homes over 5 years would be a meaningful contribution to the 79,000 on social housing waiting list. Other measures such as cost rental housing and affordability supports would further reduce the waiting lists nationwide. #VoteGreenPFG #PFG
The PFG commits to:
➡️Increased funding for organisations working directly with homeless people
➡️Expansion of Housing First approach with a focus on one-bed homes, called for by homeless organisations
➡️A referendum on the right to housing
#VoteGreenPFG #PFG
➡️New compulsory purchase powers for LDA
➡️Increasing local authority limit on discretionary spending from €2 to €6m
➡️More Vacant Homes officers
➡️Ensuring all public housing rental stock on public lands under local authorities control, approved housing or similar bodies
