The rent supplement claim for the person concerned has now been reviewed. The amount of means assessed for her from her employment has been revised downwards to give her a new entitlement to rent supplement of €577.20 per week, an increase of €22.80 per week from her previous entitlement. This revised entitlement will be backdated to 1 October 2013.
