Disability Facilities Grant

ERIC SHORT CHANGES US AGAIN

Local authorities give out grants to help people live in their own homes.

To pay for these grants funding is allocated by Eric Pickles; the grant paid to Kirklees in the past 5 years has been: 

 
 

2009/10	2010/11	2011/12	2012/13	2013/14
£1,036,000	£1,082,100	£1,231,952	£1,412,952	£1,102,717

For the year 2013/14 so far Kirklees have paid grants 513 people, the total paid out has been £2,184,000.

As you will see this is just another example of Eric Pickles short changing Kirklees Ratepayers.
