Written answers

The person concerned is qualified and entitled to a grant towards the cost of purchasing hearing aids. The grant covers half the cost, up to a maximum of €500 per device.

Application forms are available at audiology clinics, so the person concerned will be able to get one in the clinic that he attends for his hearing test.
