Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 January 2023
934. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Social Protection if a decision has been made on a fuel allowance application by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2402/23]
View answerThe Fuel Allowance is a contribution towards the energy costs of a household. The payment of €33 per week for 28 weeks (a total of €924 each year) is paid from late September to April.
On foot of previous representations an application for Fuel Allowance issued to the person concerned on 16 January 2023. On receipt of the completed application their entitlement will be examined.
I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
