Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

Out of courtesy, I will reply. We have done much work on reasonable accommodation because employers were not taking up the grants. We want them to do so in order that places can be adapted for people with disabilities to come to work. That is the number one point. We put a lot into this, so it will be launched very shortly.
On Deputy Fitzpatrick’s query, could he bring the case to my attention so I can examine it? I expanded the income criteria for the fuel allowance for the over-70s and many have benefited from that. I will examine this specific case if the Deputy sends me a note on it.
