with a breakdown between the local authority, private and voluntary sectors.

* The breakdown for private and local authority housing is provisional. The local authority figures do not include
houses acquired by the authorities (see pages 47,48 and 49).
New Hous e Guarantee Regi strati ons
Part I also sets out details on the number of new houses registered under ‘HomeBond’. Under this scheme houses
are generally registered prior to the commencement of construction work and registrations serve as a useful leading
indicator of housing activity. It should be noted that not all new houses are registered under this scheme.
PART II - HOUS ING LOANS
Part II provides details of the number and value of loans approved and paid since 1997. The information is broken
down between the following categories; banks and other agencies, building societies and local authorities. A
breakdown between annuity and endowment mortgages, fixed and variable interest rate mortgages and a percentage
breakdown of the range of house loans paid is also given.
Update
The changes in the num ber of loans approved and paid by all agencies between the December quarter 2001 and the
September quarter 2001 and in 2001 over the previous year are as follows:
Number of:
Change on
September Quarter'01
Loans Approved
-17%
Loans Paid
- 4%
Change in year 2001
over year 2000
-15%
-10%
Note
Arising from the conversion of First National Building Society to First Active plc. in 1998 there is a change in the
categories of lender used in relation to the data on loan approvals and payments (pages 16 to 21) and house prices
(pages 34 to 41). First Active plc. is now included under “Banks and Other Agencies” and figures are shown
retrospectively to 1997 on this basis.
PART III - PROFILE OF BORROWERS
Part III gives a profile of borrowers in relation to previous tenure, marital status, income and occupation.
PART IV - HOUS E PRICES
The house price figures shown in Part IV of the Bulletin are average prices for the quarter or year as the case may
be, and are derived from the data supplied by the mortgage lending agencies on loans approved by them. In
comparing house price figures from one period to another, account should be taken of the fact that changes in the
mix of houses and apartments to which the data relates affect the average figures. Prices are shown for the whole
country, the five main urban areas (Cork, Dublin, Limerick, Waterford and Galway) and for other areas of the
country. Average prices are shown separately for houses and apartments from the March Quarter 1997. A percentage
breakdown of the ranges of house prices is also provided.
Update
The changes in average house prices in the year 2001 compared to 2000, between the December quarter 2001 and
the September quarter 2001 and between the December quarter 2001 and the corresponding quarter in 2000 are as
follows:

PART VII - ACCOMMODATION OF TRAVELLERS AT 30 NOVEMBER 2001
The information in relation to traveller families was compiled from returns from local authorities in respect of the
situation which applied on 30 November, 2001.
The information supplied by local authorities is for the purposes of monitoring progress made at local level in
meeting the accommodation needs of traveller families and cannot be regarded as a census of the number of
travellers. The main information relates to numbers of traveller families which have been accommodated:
(a) directly by local authorities
(b) by voluntary bodies or travellers themselves with assistance of local authorities and
(c) traveller families on the roadside or other unserviced locations.
Terms used:
"Halting sites" includes permanent, temporary and transient sites.
"Roadside" includes families in private yards, gardens, fields and unofficial sites as well as the roadside.
"Group housing" is housing specifically designed to accommodate a number of traveller families.
PART VIII - HOUS ING GRANTS
This Part contains details in relation to housing grants (including new house, disabled persons and essential repairs
grants) approved and paid since 1997.
PART IX - RENTED HOUS ING
Part IX contains details of the level of enforcement of requirements for registration, standards and rent books and the
registration of houses and landlords at 31 December, 2001.
PART X - CAPITAL INVESTMENT IN HOUS ING
This Part gives public capital expenditure and capital formation in housing.

which have been submitted by borrowers at loan approval stage and returned to the Department by the mortgage
lending agencies.

With effect from 1 January, 1999 the fixed conversion rate between the Euro and the Irish pound is 1 Euro =
IR£0.787564.

publication of revised figures is sometimes unavoidable where updated figures are received after a Bulletin has been
published or where there has been typographical error. Revised figures are given in the subsequent issue to the
Bulletin in order to maintain the highest possible level of accuracy of the published data.

county councils - Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin replaced
Dublin County Council and Dun Laoghaire Corporation on 1 January 1994.
(b) From 1 January, 2002, changes in statutory titles have been made in the Local
Government Act 2001:- County Borough Corporations now known as City Councils;
Borough Corporations now known as Borough Councils and Urban District Councils and
Town Commissioners now known as Town Councils. The two County Councils in Tipperary
are now known as North Tipperary County Council and South Tipperary County Council
respectively. However, for consistency in the 2001 series their titles will not be changed
until publication of the March Quarter Bulletin 2002.
(c) The local authority figures include demountables and pre-fabricated houses.
(d) Local authority house completions for years up to and including 1992 include a small
but unquantified number of houses acquired by the authorities. The local authority
house completions from 1993 onwards do not include houses acquired by them. These
are shown separately on pages 47-49.
(e) The figures for private houses from 1993 onwards are not directly comparable
with those for previous years which contained an unquantified number of
voluntary & co-operative/non-profit houses.

the rental subsidy and capital assistance schemes as shown by area on page 50.

Note
In recent years due to the developments in the mortgage market these data contained an unquantified
element of refinancing of existing mortgages (e.g. involving the redemption of an existing mortgage and
its replacement with a mortgage from a different lender ). Steps are being taken by the Department
with the co-operation of the mortgage lenders to endeavour to exclude such refinancing loans.

Disabled persons grants are payable for works necessary for the proper accommodation of a physically
disabled, severely mentally handicapped or severely mentally ill person. The maximum grant payable is
equivalent to the full cost of adapting a local authority house and 90% of the approved cost of adapting
a private house. Two-thirds of the grant paid is recouped to the local authority by the Department of the
Environment and Local Government subject to a maximum recoupment of _13,543 (£10,666) in each case.
