291. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government the estimated cost of introducing a scheme that would make central funding available to local authorities for the purposes of installing, via adaptation or otherwise, fully accessible public toilets including a hoist and a changing bench with the objective of delivering 50 such facilities across the State; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have no direct role in this matter. The provision of public toilet facilities is an operational matter for local authorities. My Department has, therefore, not costed such a scheme as that proposed.
