Mr. Graham Doyle:

The response varies according to those options. The maximum approved cost for demolition of the entire house is €275,000, with a maximum payable grant of €247,000. Those figures vary across the various categories of response. Remediation of homes affected by mica is much more expensive because the damage tends to be very significant, while the average figure for homes affected by pyrite is about €65,000.
