Written answers

Minister for Social Protection

The person concerned made a claim for supplementary welfare allowance at my Department's Homeless Person's Unit on 4th October 2013. His claim was disallowed on the basis that he did not satisfy the habitual residence condition as he failed to supply adequate documentary evidence of his income as requested.
