Ms Helen Faughnan:

I am pleased with what the Department is doing in this regard. We have hired loss adjusters to assist us with the stage 3 refurbishments. We have also asked the loss adjusters to give advice to householders on simple measures, like the Deputy mentioned, such as locating sockets higher up, replacing wooden floors with tiles, etc. The stage 3 payments we are making cover and include any type of preventive measures like that.
