Notification of the 2020 funding allocations in respect of the Housing Adaptation Grants for Older People and People with a Disability will issue to all local authorities, including Roscommon County Council and Galway County Council, shortly.
In the interim, all local authorities have been advised that they can spend up to 65% of their 2019 allocation. This interim funding provision allows all local authorities to continue approving applications and making payments to successful grant applicants, pending the notification of the full year 2020 allocations.
