Vol. 249 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Social Welfare Benefits.

56.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare if he is aware of the delay on some occasions in the payment of social welfare benefits, such as disability benefit, in Cork city; and what steps are proposed to have this position rectified.

In the vast majority of cases social welfare benefit is paid promptly on the due date As the Deputy is no doubt aware delay in payment may occur in some cases due to causes outside my Department's control and if he will give me particulars of any specific case he may have in mind I will have inquiries made.
