As detailed to the Deputy in reply to Parliamentary Question No. 86 of 3 December 2015 and No. 78 of 26 April 2016 and several related Parliamentary Questions, the client has been requested on numerous occasions to provide the Department with details of all capital accrued from the sale of the family home. This documentation is required to make an assessment. This documentation has not, to date, been received by the Department. A final reminder was issued to the client on 3rd December. This claim for Rent Supplement was closed on the 21st December. I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
