Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 19 May 2016
132. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection to review and immediately approve an application by a person (details supplied) under the rent support scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11093/16]
View answerAs advised in the reply to the Deputy’s most recent question on this matter (ref: 37096-15), the person concerned failed to submit the required documentation to allow their eligibility for Rent Supplement to be determined and their claim was closed on this basis and they were advised of their right to appeal this.
It is open to the person concerned to re-apply for a Rent Supplement. If they re-apply, they should provide the information previously requested along with up-to-date documentation pertaining to their situation.
