Councillors are being asked to approve a giant 1.48 billion euro budget to run the city next year.

The bill for bringing vacant and derelict council homes in Dublin city back into use will run to 28 million euro next year.

Almost 50-thousand euro is expected to be spent per home according to the Irish Times.

The department of housing covering just over a fifth of the cost.

It means the city council will have to cough up the majority of the money, mostly by borrowing.
