Andrew Boylan
Ceist:235 Mr. Boylan asked the Minister for Health and Children if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the mobility allowance is only £45 per month; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that this payment would leave a person in their home 99% of the time, which would not be suitable for a person either mentally or physically, depriving them from their human freedom and causing health damage; if he will now favourably consider increasing this allowance to £150 per month, and if he will make a statement on the matter.
