The Department is administering the Water Conservation Grant on behalf of the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government. The regulations governing the Water Conservation Grant are set out in the Water Services Act 2014 (Water Conservation Grant) Regulations 2015. Statutory Instrument 434 of 2015 provided for the extension of the deadline for the submission of a completed application for the Water Conservation Grant to the Department of Social Protection from 8 October 2015 to 22 October 2015. Therefore the extended deadline has now passed.

I understand that an officer of this Department will be in contact with your office to establish the circumstances of this particular case.
