A near €12m project to unlock land with capacity for 2,500 new homes should serve as a template for the fast-tracking of new homes around the country, the Tánaiste has said.
Micheál Martin was speaking in East Cork on Friday as he marked the official completion of the Water-Rock critical infrastructure project near Midleton, six years after work first began.
