Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: In the interest of time, regarding the more than 50% requiring a re-work, in other words, work was not carried out properly. The level of inspection is 8% in one of the schemes. I have come across situations where some pieces of work were left in kind of an odd way, to put it mildly. Small things were left out or whatever. Homeowners would complain about trying to get it resolved. Where...

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: Dr. Byrne will understand that we have a problem with self-certification in this country. We have many legacy problems because of a dependence on self-certification. The point I am making to Dr. Byrne is that in terms of value for money and good outcomes, it is very important that the SEAI is in control. However, it does carry out full inspections across the three schemes on a targeted basis.

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: I would say to the witnesses, and to the Secretaries General of all Departments, that local authority in any other democracy means that those who are elected. With regard to the dealings what is happening is frightening, even since I came off the local authority nearly 13 years ago. Funding comes from various Government Departments about which councillors know nothing and are completely in...

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: Those at the top of the Civil Service just need to remind themselves that in the way of elections the legal local authority is those who make up the chamber. That is where the buck stops. There is an elected tier there that is in charge of policy but they are being kept completely in the dark. The Deputy may also see it in Kildare where funding is going down on a regular basis. The...

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: Will Dr. Byrne also clarify a point on the better energy and warmer homes schemes. Replacing single-glazed windows was not in the scheme until one or two years ago. The SEAI then did a pilot that was very successful, mainly in south Dublin. Is this now available throughout the State where there are single-glazed windows.

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: Dr. Byrne said, "Where it is appropriate". I am asking the question. If the surveyor goes to a house that needs work done to it and in which a pensioner or a person who has serious health issues is living, will those windows be changed to double-glazed windows? Will they be at least double glazed?

Chapter 8: Performance of Certain Residential Retrofit Schemes (9 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: There are examples where the heat is still flying out through the windows and doors whatever works have been done. These are older, single-glazed windows like the ones in Deputy Burke's office letting the heat out of Leinster House. We see windows with cracked glass.
