Bring vacant and derelict homes back into use

What this means

• The Green Party made this commitment in its November 2024 general election manifesto, so it is a promise rather than a law or policy already in place.[source]
• The party pledged to bring vacant and derelict homes back into use, targeting properties sitting empty across Ireland.[source]
• One tool proposed is the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant, which would help owners fund repairs to bring empty homes back into use.[source]
• A land hoarding tax was also proposed to discourage owners from leaving properties idle, adding a financial cost to inaction.[source]
• This commitment falls under rural and community policy, meaning it aims to benefit communities where empty buildings are a visible problem.[source]
• No delivery date was set, so voters and watchdogs should track whether these measures are pursued if the Green Party enters government.[source]
