Amharc ar fhreagraThe Improvement Works in Lieu (IWIL) scheme allows local authorities to improve or extend privately owned accommodation which is occupied or intended to be occupied by an applicant approved for social housing as an alternative to the provision of social housing.
Under my Department’s Social Housing Investment Programme, funding i s provided to housing authorities in respect of the IWIL scheme and for the provision of necessary adaptations or extensions to properties to meet the needs of tenants with a disability (DPG) . It is a matter for each local authority to decide the specific level of funding to be directed to each of these measures out of the allocations provided. Details of the amounts recouped to local authorities for the period 2010 to 2012 and the initial allocations for 2013 are set out in the following table.

Data on the number of houses improved as part of the scheme are included as part of that range.
