Mr. John McCarthy:
Under the housing adaption grants scheme, there were 7,000 grants nationally in 2013. In 2014 that figure increased to just over 7,500. More money is available this year. The Exchequer funding provided last year amounted to €37.1 million. The allocation this year is €40.4 million. We expect in excess of 7,000 households to benefit.
