MORE THAN HALF of renting households receive State support in order to meet their housing costs, according to fresh research released today.

This amounts to 16% of households overall and 54% of those renting. The figure is more than double the number in receipt of equivalent housing supports in 1994.
The ESRI noted that the qualification criteria for housing supports have become more restrictive in recent years.
