I am aware of the social benefit accruing from the Housing Adaptation grant schemes that my Department funds in terms of facilitating the continued independent occupancy of their own homes by older people and people with a disability. While no specific meetings are planned with the organisation in question, I am happy to consider representations on behalf of any group of people who benefit from the Adaptation grants and I am always keen to ensure that this grant aid reaches those most in need.
