View answer
The installation of central heating may form part of eligible works carried out under a number of schemes administered by local authorities for which financial assistance is available from my Department including: the disabled persons grant scheme; the essential repairs grant scheme; and the 2004 central heating programme, which applies to local authority rented dwellings only.
In addition, funding may be provided under the special housing aid for the elderly scheme, which is operated by the health boards. Further information on the schemes is available from the local authority concerned.
