Vol. 286 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Unemployment Assistance.

27.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare why unemployment assistance has not been paid to a person (name supplied) in County Offaly.

The person concerned is not being paid unemployment assistance as his qualification certificate, possession of which is an essential requirement for entitlement to such assistance, was revoked by decision of a deciding officer with effect from 5th February, 1975 on the ground that his means exceeded the statutory limit. This decision was upheld on appeal.

He has made a renewed application for a certificate and his case is at present being investigated by a social welfare officer. He will be notified of the result of his application as soon as possible.
