Paul McGrath
Question:108 Mr. McGrath asked the Minister for Social Welfare whether a person (details supplied) in County Kildare, who has worked specific hours per week for the past two years, is entitled to unemployment assistance for the remaining time; if persons with similar hours of employment in similar employment are currently eligible for unemployment assistance; whether there are other cases with identical hours and days of employment in respect of which unemployment assistance is paid; if his attention has been drawn to the contrasting manner in which this claim was disallowed in comparison to the way in which a recent appeal has been refused; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
