Sustainable Energy Ireland have advised me that the applicant to whom the Deputy refers did receive a letter of offer for grant aid under the Greener Homes Scheme on the 1st of December 2006, and a reminder of same in August 2007. The offer was revoked on the 21st of December 2007, as the letter of offer lapsed after one year, as set out under the terms of the scheme. A request for payment was received at a later stage and still reviewed for payment but, as the invoice for work predated the original letter of offer by a month, the applicant was not eligible for payment under the rules of the scheme. The applicant was informed of this earlier this year.
