Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection

The person concerned made a claim for jobseeker's allowance in Newbridge local office on 6 February 2015 and received her first payment on 3 March 2015. As supplementary welfare allowance was in payment from 22 January 2015, payment of arrears does not arise.

Question No. 46 withdrawn.
