Ms Aileen Duffy:

I will take the first and the third questions. In terms of the €13 million in carbon tax, that is being put towards the warmer homes scheme. It essentially increased the budget that was in place for 2020. The way the scheme works is that it is demand led and people in fuel poverty apply for it. We deal with the applications on a first come, first served basis. It will enable us to do a greater number of homes. It will get wrapped up in the overall capital budget, which is now at €53 million. There is no specific target for the €13 million but it will help us do more homes.

Regarding the deep retrofit, I do not have an exact number in terms of householders, but applications from anyone who applied before the cut-off date are being evaluated at the moment. We are working through providing letters of offer on those. We have gone back to contractors with some questions as well. We are working through the process as quickly as we can.
