I will bank them all and the witnesses can answer what they can. What specific steps has the SEAI taken to ensure the delivery of retrofits for those in social housing and at risk of energy poverty in the first instance? Could the witnesses provide a high-level breakdown of how the €13 million will be specifically allocated? What involvement has the SEAI had with the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government and the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment on the delivery of retrofits in the midlands? When did the discussions commence?
I wish to ask about the 300 loans to households that submitted applications before the deadline for the SEAI's deep retrofit scheme was closed. How many of the 300 households have had their applications progressed and approved?
