The online register shows elapsed days and an indicative estimate, but it does not provide the operation date.

The two schemes total €20 million, require vehicles to be written off and are due to accept applications from 2 November to 1 February.

The security-delayed scheme now runs from 3 November to 5 December. Youth and general sales follow later, with public funds covering half each purchase.

Applications open at 9am across 40 municipalities. Vehicle claims require a total-loss decision and deregistration, while housing and rehousing follow separate rules.

Municipal benefits support hearing, home accessibility and vehicle adaptations, but do not fund general home improvements.

Gold and Silver passes target registered residents who are unemployed or on low household incomes; the price depends on benefits and income thresholds.

The service is not limited to older people living alone; it may also cover disability, recovery periods and vulnerable families after council assessment.

Social Services may support utilities, temporary accommodation, treatment or travel where serious need exists, resources are insufficient and other options are exhausted.

The service builds journeys around bookings to connect lower-density areas; requests are made online, in the app or by phone and produce a booking code.
