Plans to announce a €30 to €40m deal to provide 88 apartments at Cork city’s Lancaster Quay for cost-rental and social homes were pulled at the last moment as the Government confirmed delays in its Housing for All programme.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin had been due to announce today that 73 cost rental apartments and 15 social homes were to be built by O’Callaghan Properties (OCP) next to its completed blocks at Lancaster Quay.
