Written Answers. - Housing Grants.

  286. Mr. N. O’Keeffe asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the position regarding a new house grant application by a person (details supplied) in Dublin 9. [30768/04]

  Mr. N. Ahern:The final deadline for occupation and receipt of claim for payment of the new house grant was 2 April 2004. This statutory condition, which was notified to the applicant on 17 November 2003 and 8 March 2004 and published in the main daily newspapers on the 27 March 2004, cannot be set aside in any particular case. As a claim for payment was not received in this case before the deadline, a grant cannot be allowed.
