My Department funds a number of Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) grant schemes to support homeowners to improve the energy efficiency of their properties. The administration and management of applications under SEAI schemes is an operational matter for the SEAI. As Minister, I have no function with regard to individual grant applications.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.

The administration and management of applications under the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) schemes are an operational matter for the SEAI and I as Minister, have no function with regard to individual grant applications. The SEAI has established a specific email address for queries such as this from Oireachtas members so that important queries such as this can be addressed promptly, in line with SEAI’s objective to deliver services to the highest standards. I would urge the Deputy to pursue this matter directly with SEAI through following dedicated email address - oireachtas@seai.ie. My officials have also made contact with SEAI to alert it to this case.
