97 Deputy Arthur Morgan asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the new revised housing adaptation scheme for adapting houses for people with disabilities is still inadequate as it does not provide 100% funding to owner-occupiers affecting low-income households greatly and that the 5% funding shortfall and the maximum grant of €30,000 will often not cover the cost of works which often produces problems due to the well documented links between poverty and disability.
