Vol. 475 No. 7
26 Mr. Foley asked the Minister for Social Welfare the cost of rent and mortgage supplements under the supplementary welfare allowance scheme for each of the years from 1994 to 1996; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3428/97]
The details on expenditure for rent and mortgage interest supplements for the years 1994 to 1996 are set out in the following tabular statements. The figures requested by the Deputy are currently only available up to the end of October 1996, but it is expected that the full expenditure figures for 1996 should be available in April 1997. I will provide the Deputy with these figures as soon as they become available.
