DfC currently owns approximately 70 acres of land in Poleglass which was surplus to requirements following the Poleglass housing development scheme in the 1980s. There are almost 2,000 houses in Poleglass and the level of private ownership is very low. Poleglass lies within the Colin Neighbourhood Area of West Belfast and is within 10% of the most disadvantaged wards in Northern Ireland. The area suffers from a wide range of socio-economic problems and a lack of community infrastructure which has contributed to a varied range of anti-social activity involving misuse of DfC land.

This contract will expire on 31 Jan 2026 and the Dept. is seeking to tender for a new contract from 01 Feb 2026 for a period of 3 years with optional extension of 1 year. DfC reserves the right to review its operational responsibilities as changes to the area arise.
