Written answers

The person concerned is in receipt of a Jobseekers Allowance payment of €393.00 per week from the 11th September 2018. The weekly payment is made up of a personal allowance of €198.00, an adult dependent allowance of €131.40 and a child dependent allowance of €31.80 per each child. There are 2 child dependents. This is the correct level of Jobseekers Allowance payable.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
