What this means for a buyer

The Land Development Agency keeps a register of land held by public bodies under the Land Development Agency Act 2021, as part of finding State land for housing. Being on the register does not mean a site is surplus or for sale. When a council does sell, it has to give its members notice first, which shows up on the council land for sale list; other State bodies sell through their own processes.

Questions people ask

Is this land for sale?

Not because it is on the register, which shows who holds what. A council sale is announced through a section 183 notice.

Who holds the most public land here?

This page lists the largest holders in Dublin City by area.

Where does this list come from?

The Land Development Agency's Register of Relevant Lands. Each row links to it.
