My Department's involvement in the disabled persons and essential repair grant schemes relates primarily to the recoupment to local authorities of 75% of their expenditure on the payment of individual grants. Details of the recoupments to local authorities so far in 2007 are set out in the table below.

Information on local authority activity under both of these schemes this year will be compiled and published in due course in my Department's 2007 Annual Housing Statistics Bulletin.
