Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 January 2024
335. Deputy Alan Dillon asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the new criteria for applicants under the new domestic wastewater treatment systems grant; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2373/24]
View answerIn November 2023, I announced substantial improvements to the terms and conditions of all three Domestic Waste Water Treatment System (DWWTS) grants available to households.
I approved an increase of the grant amount available to €12,000 from €5,000 and also made it is easier to qualify by removing the requirement, for the purposes of the grant, on households to have registered their DWWTS with their local authority.
The changes came into effect on 1 January 2024.
