Fergus O'Dowd (FG), Louth

One thing that is clear is that urban dereliction and decay is rampant in our country and this Croí Cónaithe vacant property refurbishment grant is a game changer in terms of incentivising occupation of these dwellings and commercial spaces, because some can be commercial, provided they have been vacant for two years and were built before 1993. Will the Minister of State review grant amounts or change them in any way to encourage more people to get involved in refurbishment in every part of the country, urban and rural, and in our cities and towns?
