Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 April 2021
669. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Social Protection the policy with regard to the continuation and payment of the pandemic unemployment payment after 30 June 2021; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [22155/21]
View answerThe Pandemic Unemployment Payment (PUP) scheme is due to remain open until 30th June 2021 and the Government will continue to keep all aspects of the scheme under review. Future decisions will be informed by the trajectory of the pandemic and the wider implications for the reopening of society and the economy.
I trust that this clarifies the position at this time.
