QUESTION NO. 21

QUESTION: Councillor L.Guéret

To ask the Chief Executive for a report on the Domestic Lead Remediation Grant Scheme. Report to include how many applications there have been in 2023, the criteria for eligibility, and how many grants have been approved?

REPLY:

The Domestic Lead Remediation Grant Scheme helps households with the costs of replacing lead piping or related fittings located within the internal distribution system connected to a domestic water supply that serves a house. The scope of the grant and relevant definitions are as detailed in the Housing (Domestic Lead Remediation Grant) Regulations 2022 (S.I. No. 519 of 2022), which came into operation on 1 December 2022.

South Dublin County Council has not received any Domestic Lead Grant Applications in 2023 and therefore no grants have been approved in 2023.
