Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 4 July 2018
330. Deputy John Brady asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the estimated annual cost of administering the working family payment scheme; and the percentage of the annual spend on the scheme. [29471/18]
View answerAn estimate of €431.3m has been provided for in the 2018 Revised Estimates for the Working Family Payment. It is not possible to disaggregate the cost of administering the Working Family Payment scheme from the overall costs of Department’s administration because staff processing claims for any scheme are typically working on a range of schemes.
