Kathleen Lynch
Ceist:417 Deputy Kathleen Lynch asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs if her attention has been drawn to the fact that the number signing on the live register at the Cork local office has increased by 30% over the past year, that this increase is creating a serious backlog in processing claims and is causing hardship for clients and pressure on staff with a knock on effect on community welfare officers; the action she proposes to take to deal with this matter; if she will sanction adequate staffing levels to deal with the backlog; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
