The community welfare service (CWS), and the community welfare officers providing it, transferred formally to the Department of Social Protection (DSP) from 1 October 2011. The service and the staff are now part of the DSP.

The position remains as advised in my reply to the Deputy on 18th October 2011. The person concerned was requested to provide further information in order to process his application for a mortgage interest supplement. The information requested has not been provided to date. The person concerned should contact the local supplementary welfare allowance administrative office to discuss his particular case.
