LIMERICK City and County Council has received a 20 per cent increase in funding to transform vacant houses into new homes, according to Fine Gael Senator Maria Byrne. 

The Department of Housing has provided €50,000 a year to each local authority since 2018, to help support the work of their Vacant Homes Officers (VHO). Funding will increase to €60,000 this year as there is more focus on tackling vacancy in the housing stock.
