Who we are

Land Development Agency (LDA)

The Land Development Agency (LDA) is the State’s affordable housing delivery body. It is in the process of delivering homes on State-owned or acquired land and through homebuilder partnerships as part of the Government’s Project Tosaigh initiative.
 

The LDA will improve the way the housing market functions by:

  • Working with State bodies and Local Authorities to make more effective use of State lands, providing a stable, sustainable supply of land for housing.
  • Improving the planning system to facilitate State lands being used for housing.
  • Acquiring and developing land in a selective, targeted way that boosts housing supply.
  • Delivering rental market initiatives that provide affordable mass-market tenure.
  • Investing in research and innovation to identify new and better ways to deliver new homes.
  • Providing high-level expertise underpinned by robust governance.
