Amharc ar fhreagra
Subject to the other conditions of the new house grant scheme, which was terminated as and from 14 November 2002, a grant may be approved where a contract to purchase or to build a house was entered into, or in the case of a self built house, where the foundations were poured on or before 14 November 2002 and the application for the grant was received in my Department on or before 4 December 2002. In this particular case, a new house grant cannot be allowed as the contract to purchase the house was effected subsequent to 14 November 2002.
