I propose to take Questions Nos. 162 and 163 together.

The Department operates a network of local and branch offices throughout the country. Each of these offices is manned during normal working hours and is open to the public from Monday to Friday each week during the hours indicated in the following table. Each office has dedicated officers who are available to explain supports and services and provide other information to customers on their entitlements. These locally based services are supported by a central information unit which operates a LoCall information line (1890 662244) which customers may call for general information and guidance on departmental services.
