Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 6 December 2012
61. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection if free fuel allowance is available in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [55039/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraIn order to qualify for a fuel allowance a jobseeker’s allowance recipient must, in addition to a number of other qualifying conditions, have been in receipt of jobseeker’s allowance for over 390 days. The person concerned has been in receipt of jobseeker’s allowance for 240 days and therefore does not at present qualify for a fuel allowance.
