65 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Social Welfare whether a person (details supplied) in County Dublin is eligible for a reduced social welfare pension on the basis of her partial social insurance record.
One of the qualifying conditions for receipt of contributory old age pension under the Social Welfare Acts requires a person to have a yearly average of at least 20 reckonable contributions over the period from the beginning of the 1953 contribution year or from her year of entry into insurance, which ever is the later, to the end of the last complete contribution year before reaching pension age.
