Over 40 housing estates remain unfinished across the country, with three of these in Cork city, despite the high demand for housing.
The Irish Independent reports on a new study from the Department of Housing which notes that 42 'ghost' estates remain in built-up areas, despite an overall reduction across the country.
Three of these estates are in Cork city and NAMA has six such estates under it's control in Cork .
248 estates were resolved around the country last year, with 2,000 homes being used for social housing.
