Between 2022 and 2024, only just over 221 social homes were built, short of a 1,114 target.
Midlands local authorities met just 22% of their targets for own-build social housing accommodation between 2022 and 2024.
The figures come as Housing Minister James Browne will tell Cabinet this morning of plans for a new league table to track social housing delivery by local councils.
The figures show very few local authorities are directly building social housing.
A little over 221 social homes were built by county councils in Laois, Offaly, and Westmeath between 2022 and 2024 - compared to a target of 1,114.
Three local authorities met less than 10% of the target - Cork County, Kildare and Louth.
But the other set of figures is overall social housing delivery in that time - when things like builds from approved housing bodies and the Part V contribution of developers are taken into account.
So while Laois directly built just 21% of its target in those years, it met 187% of its overall target through other means - the best in the country.
When the overall picture is taken to account, Offaly delivered 126% of its target, while Westmeath's figure is 82%.
