Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What steps they are taking to ensure that the disabled facilities grant is extended to people who live on gypsy sites run by local authorities or registered social landlords, and not only to those who live in "qualifying park homes". [HL3835]

Lord Rooker

The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister will be writing shortly to key interested parties, including the noble Lord, setting out proposals for amending the definition of a qualifying park home in relation to eligibility for disabled facililties grant to include all occupiers of caravans.
