I propose to take Questions Nos. 337 to 339, inclusive, together.

My Department provides funding under the Housing Adaptation Grants for Older People and People with a Disability. There are three separate grants available and local authorities receive an overall allocation, with the responsibility for the apportionment between the three grants being a matter for each authority.

The Exchequer funding provided to each local authority for these grants up to 2014 is available on my Department’s website at the following link;, by selecting ‘Social and Affordable Housing’, ‘Housing Adaptation Grants by Area 2008 to date’. Details of the 2015 figures are being finalised and will be available on my Department’s website shortly.
