Written answers

To ensure that the best use is made of all available resources, with a view to providing an effective and efficient service to those who rely on all schemes operated by the Department of Social Protection, staffing needs for all areas are kept under review.

In this regard my Department is reviewing staffing needs in a number of Community Welfare Service clinics across the country. No decisions have yet been made in relation to the Crumlin area. Where changes in services are planned, all customers from these areas will be notified accordingly.
