Amid claims of misleading projections regarding new homes, Irish Housing Minister Mr. O'Brien maintains the government’s commitment to housing, admitting disappointment with last year’s figures. Despite approximately 130,000 homes constructed over four and a half years, he emphasizes the desire for acceleration. O'Brien critiques opponents of data centers, asserting the crucial role they play in housing data for major employers in Ireland. During a recent UK-Ireland summit, he engaged in talks on offshore renewable energy, advocating for a strategic vision regarding data centers in Ireland.
"We did a lot, and we want to accelerate that. I was clear, and publicly I didn't shy away from it at all, that we were disappointed with the out-turn last year. Unquestionably."
"Those who say we should not have data centres, or should not be open to them, are absolutely incorrect and are being short-sighted."
