Dáil Hears Clare Families Still Locked Out Of Defective Blocks Redress Scheme
Update: 2025-12-06
Description
The Dáil has heard that Clare families living in dwellings built with defective concrete blocks fear their house will collapse whenever a weather warning is issued.
It comes as the Government has published new proposed legislation containing a number of policy changes regarding grants for homeowners affected by defective construction materials.
A key aspect of the new legislation is that homeowners who received a grant determination before October 23rd 2024 and have incurred eligible building costs since March 29th 2024 can seek an increased grant.
Addressing the Housing Minister in the Dáil, Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan says at least 25 Clare households are still locked out of the scheme.
