The administration and management of applications under the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) grant schemes are an operational matter for the SEAI. As Minister, I have no function with regard to individual grant applications. However, in view of the urgency of the matter outlined in the Question, I have asked officials in my Department to contact the SEAI to expeditate matters.

The SEAI has established a specific email address for queries from Oireachtas members so that such queries can be addressed promptly, in line with SEAI’s objective to deliver services to the highest standards. The email address is oireachtas@seai.ie.
