Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 May 2023
453. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection the progress to date in the determination of a supplementary welfare allowance application in the case of a person (details supplied) who applied for same and a disability allowance in April; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [22603/23]
View answerDepartmental records reflect the person concerned has not made a recent application for a Supplementary Welfare Allowance (SWA). It is open to the person to apply by completing a SWA1 form and providing all relevant documents in support of their application.
For convenience, a SWA application pack was posted to the person concerned on 09/05/2023. On receipt of a completed application form and supporting documentation, the claim will be assessed, and the person will be advised of the outcome in writing.
I trust this clarifies the matter.
