Mr. Patrick O'Sullivan:

The Deputy specifically referenced the housing adaptation grant for people with a disability. All of those grant applications are obviously assessed in the context of occupational therapist reports, and local authorities can make contribution toward the cost of that. The maximum grant is currently €30,000, or 95% of the total cost. That is the case of homes built more than 12 months ago. It also provides for a maximum grant for houses built less than 12 months ago, so they are effectively new. It is almost up to 50%.
