Amharc ar fhreagraCapital funding is provided by my Department to Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs), via the local authorities, for the construction costs of eligible sheltered housing projects under the Capital Assistance Scheme. The AHB receives rental income and, thereafter, the costs of operating the housing, including provision of necessary services, is a matter for the AHB. My Department does not fund the type of services referred to by the Deputy.
