Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government

Dublin City Council has made a proposal for the funding of this project under my Department’s Capital Assistance Scheme for sheltered housing. My Department is in active discussions with the Council regarding the costs and certain design issues and we await further information from the Council so that the proposal can be advanced.
