Last year, more than €14 million euro was drawn down - leading to the first year in a number where the full total was spent.
KCC drew down €261,000
Housing Minister Darragh O'Brien has confirmed that situation has now changed and local authorities must now apply for the funding,
Peadar Toibin said there's a resistance among some councils to drawing down the money
