Welsh to scrap test for grant

Grants to help families who need to adapt their homes for disabled children will no longer be means tested in Wales it was announced today prompting calls form charities for the policy to be extended to England.  Welsh social justice minister Edwina Hart said today "Families could apply for disabled facilites grants to cover up to 100% of the costs of adaptions regardless of their income."

Yeah, what are odds of that happening eh?
