Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin

Question:

441. Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for Social Protection the number of persons under 26 years of age who are in receipt of jobseeker's allowance, jobseeker's benefit, supplementary payments pending jobseeker's allowance and jobseeker's benefit and signing on for credits at each social welfare office here; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [45788/13]

Written answers

The information in relation to supplementary payments pending jobseekers allowance and jobseekers benefit being paid at each Social Welfare Local Office is not ordinarily maintained within my Department.

The information requested by the Deputy in relation to persons under 26 on the Live Register where available is listed in the following tabular statement. The Live Register count is slightly higher than the number of recipients in the jobseeker’s allowance and jobseeker’s benefit schemes as it includes claims awaiting decision and certain other categories of claims not in payment.

Number of persons under 26 years on the Live Register by scheme at 31 October 2013.
