Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 May 2016
344. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application by a person (details supplied) under the family income supplement scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11845/16]
View answerThe person concerned is currently in receipt of Family Income Supplement (FIS) and this weekly payment will be paid for 52 weeks until 8 June 2016. The scheme is renewed yearly.
I confirm that a FIS renewal application form has been received from this customer for the year from June 2016 to June 2017 and will be processed before the current FIS claim is due to expire. The person in question will be notified of the decision once the renewal claim is processed.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
