Kildare County Council received a capital allocation of €934,000 for disabled persons and essential repairs grants in May 2004. It subsequently sought an increase of €116,000 which was allocated to it on 9 September to bring its total allocation for this year to €1,050,000. No further requests for increased funding have been received from the council in respect of these schemes.
