The Scheme of Community Support for Older People operates on the basis of applications for funding to support the cost of supplying and installing socially monitored alarms and other personal security devices. No allocations are set for individual organisations although applications are restricted to €30,000 from any one organisation in a calendar year. This group received €30,000 in respect of applications approved in 2008.

I would like to refer the Deputy to my reply to question no. 303 on 10th March 2009 where I indicated that no application has been received from or on behalf of the group referred to by the Deputy. This organisation was not an applicant and did not receive any funds from the Scheme in 2008.
