The disabled person's grant scheme is administered by local authorities in accordance with the legal framework laid down in section 6 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 1979, and statutory regulations made under that Act. It is a matter for the local authority to decide the level of grants in individual cases and the circumstances in which a grant may be paid, and I have no function in relation to the determination of eligibility or otherwise in individual cases. It is, of course, also a matter for the authority to ensure that there are no undue delays in the processing of applications for disabled persons' grants.
