On 29 May 2017, funding of €59.8m million was announced by my Department for the Housing Adaptation Grants for Older People and People with a Disability, which is an increase of some 6% on the previous year's allocation. Some 8,000 households benefitted under the Scheme in 2016, and with this additional funding, it is hoped to increase this to 10,000 in 2017.

Details of the allocations for 2017 are available on my Department's website at the following link: .
