Charlie McConalogue
Question:92. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Social Protection if a system can be put in place for part-time fishermen to allow their claim for jobseeker's allowance to be dealt with immediately due to the fact that fishermen who make a claim when they come off a boat can wait for up to two weeks to receive an appointment with her Department to assess their application for jobseeker's and therefore can find themselves back at sea again within the two weeks, without their application having been dealt with and their file is then closed; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
