Allocations to each local authority towards the operation of the revised suite of housing adaptation grant schemes — the Housing Adaptation Grant for People with a Disability, the Mobility Aids Grant Scheme and the Housing Aid for Older People Scheme and the processing of outstanding claims under the now discontinued Disabled Persons and Essential Repairs Grants schemes, are set out in the Table below.
The allocations made by my Department to local authorities for the operation of the schemes represent not capital grants, but the total amount which authorities are authorised to spend on the schemes, including from the resources of individual authorities. It is a matter for local authorities to decide on the specific level of funding to be directed towards each of the schemes, from within the combined allocation notified to them by my Department, and to manage the operation of the schemes in their area from within this allocation.
My Department has recently made supplementary Exchequer allocations to a number of local authorities; this information is also set out in the following table.
