Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 31 January 2023
478. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Social Protection if a decision has been made on an application by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry for the fuel allowance; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [4061/23]
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.
The Fuel Allowance for the person concerned was awarded from 16 December 2022. They were notified in writing on 24 January 2023.
I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
