I am talking about, for instance, a particular area in Cork where houses were built with cavity blocks, not cavity walls, so it is not an ideal situation. I have seen houses where the outside layer has been put in place and homeowners have got full SEAI grants but I was intrigued that there was no engagement with the adjoining property owner. It would have been easier to do two houses together rather than doing one on its own. Can a mechanism like that be established?
