Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 10 April 2014
101. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection if and when jobseeker's allowance will be approved in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17208/14]
View answerThe person concerned does not have a current pending application for jobseeker’s allowance registered with this Department. A previous application dated 18 December 2013 was disallowed on the basis that the person concerned did not show that her means were not in excess of the prescribed limit for a person of her circumstances. She did not appeal the decision. It is open to the person concerned to submit a fresh application is she feels she meets the criteria for receipt of this income support.
