John Gormley

Ceist:

101 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if, for the budget for 2005, he will recommend that the weekly direct provision payments of €19.10 per adult and €9.60 per child be increased; and if not, the reason the direct provision allowance has remained the same since its introduction in 1999.

As the Deputy is aware, it is not the usual practice for Ministers to comment on specific budgetary measures in advance of the annual budget and I do not propose to deviate from that practice on this occasion.
