Assistance towards heating facilities 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, assistance may be available also through the special housing aid for the elderly scheme which is operated by the health boards. Further information on these schemes is available from Dublin City Council for houses situated within the Dublin city area.
