    Abstract

    This policy report examines the use of data to determine long-term housing tenure needs and demands in Ireland through an in-depth case study of the Government of Ireland’s Housing Need and Demand Assessment (HNDA) policy. The study draws from deskbased research of all 31 local authority’s local development plans, 11 interviews with planners, policymakers and consultants involved in the rollout and present review of the HNDA, two workshops with key stakeholders exploring the relationship between evidence and policy and 13 post-workshop interviews. Beyond providing a synthesis of how the HNDA process was understood by users and key stakeholders, the report develops a critique of: 1) the methodology, 2) the capacity of local authorities to perform an HNDA, 3) the rollout of the policy and 4) overarching governance issues.
