98 Mrs. O'Rourke asked the Minister for Social Welfare the result of the review of the appeal for deserted wife's allowance by a person (details supplied) in County Westmeath. [15286/95]
The person concerned is in receipt of unemployment assistance at the maximum weekly rate of £62.50 per week.
She applied for deserted wife's benefit in December 1993. The crucial issues affecting her possible entitlement to this benefit are the circumstances leading to the separation and whether she is cohabiting with another person as man and wife.
