Proponents argue that it increases the supply of affordable housing and addresses housing shortages. Opponents argue that it interferes with the housing market and can be costly for taxpayers.

stop taking in immigrants and give your own people a home

The government should focus on reconstructing the derelict and vacant houses rather than building more
@B228BYG2wks2W
Any incentivisation results in greedy companies building to claim instead of providing services. The government should just build affordable housing.
@9ZW8CM63wks3W
The government should freeze the tax they charge on all the aspects of building a house therefore make houses more affordable, bring down the cost of buying a house it is extortionate at the moment and we are saddling our young people with that, it’s criminal and will have long term consequences which I think will not be good for our population in the future
@9ZW38D53wks3W
I think more needs to be done for middle income earners who don’t qualify for this assistance but who don’t earn enough for the crazy prices

By affordable ...it should make a regular Joe Bloggs be able to afford a starter home without having to be married or living with a partner. If an average salary is 40-45 grand , affordable is accommodation between Euro 160-200... !! Not the half a million they are trying to pass off as affordable housing.
@9ZVTW4Q3wks3W
Once the incentivization is managed correctly because current Government struggles to manage any capital project spending with public money.

Do something with all the unused and derelict houses around the country. Use what's there. Make the owners of these properties accountable. If they aren't used in a 2 year period, they should have to rent them or let gov buy it off them to sell to public
