Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 July 2019
619. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the steps which can be taken to resolve a matter in the case of persons (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28060/19]
View answerThe Deputy may be aware that it would not be appropriate for me to comment on individual cases.
I can advise that an application can be made for a Guardianship Payment to the Department of Employment and Social Protection. This payment may be appropriate if a child, who is an orphan or abandoned, is being cared for on a full time basis by adults who are not their parent/guardian.
I hope you find this helpful.
