asked the Minister for the Environment the reasons an application for a house improvement grant has not been approved for a person (details supplied) in County Offaly.
The application in this case was in respect of the provision of water supply, the installation of sewerage facilities, the building of a bathroom and the carrying out of necessary repairs. Approval for a grant of £600 in respect of the carrying out of the proposed repairs will issue shortly. I understand that the question of a grant in respect of the water, sewerage and bathroom does not now arise because the applicant has obtained the approval of his local authority for a disabled person's grant in respect of these works.
