Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 May 2017
605. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection the reason not all rent arrears in respect of rent allowance payments for January, February and March 2017 were not paid in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20489/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI refer the Deputy to Parliamentary Question No 145 of 9th February 2017. The client concerned has not, to date, submitted the documentation requested by the Department regarding her Rent Supplement claim. On receipt of same, the client’s entitlement will be re-assessed.
The client concerned is currently in receipt of their maximum entitlement to Rent Supplement in line with legislation.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
