He also plans to open new houses in Urlingford later.
While 26 families are getting the keys to a new development in Sleaty Street in Graiguecullen funded by the charity Clúid Housing.
Though the Minister’s visit is welcomed, local councillors have a strong message for him.
Cathaoirleach of Kilkenny county council Eamon Aylward says while it’s great to see sods being turned & sites being visited the focus needs to be on increasing the number of homes.
