Joan Collins
Question:141. Deputy Joan Collins asked the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the fact that Sligo County Council purchased a house in 2015 to house a family (details supplied); if his attention has been further drawn to the fact that the council sought approval for funding from his Department in October 2015 to construct an extension to the house in compliance with the recommendation of the HSE’s occupational therapy service; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the family will not be allowed to move into the house until such time as the extension is constructed; if it normally takes 15 months for his Department to process and approve funding for such extensions; when it is expected that a decision will be made on the council’s submission; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
