I want the Leader to give a commitment that the Minister of State, Deputy Jan O'Sullivan, will come to the House at the earliest possible opportunity to answer questions on the issue because the Government press office and the spin doctors within Government have managed to say that the mobility grant is being increased next year.

That is a laugh. One should take a look at the figures. When the Government took over in 2011, €80 million was being spent on housing adaptation grants for the elderly and the disabled.
