Sir Andrew Bowden

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if people who receive attendance allowance will be added to the list of those eligible for a 100 per cent. home energy efficiency scheme grant after 31 March. [18334]

Mr. Robert B. Jones

Yes. We intend that householders over the age of 65 receiving attendance allowance should be able to claim full grants under the home energy efficiency scheme in the same way as householders receiving disability living allowance.
