The application made in this case was for the installation of water and sewerage facilities, the building of a chimney, the provision of a bathroom and bedroom and the carrying out of major necessary repairs to the fabric of the house. A grant cannot be allowed for the installation of a water supply as this work is being grant aided as part of a group water scheme. Grants cannot be allowed for the bathroom, sewerage, and chimney aspects of the application because these facilities are already in existence in the house. Maximum grants totalling £1,000 have been approved in respect of the bedroom extension and repair work.
