Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 July 2020
173. Deputy Paul McAuliffe asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the progress to date in the determination of an appeal for a reduced pandemic unemployment payment in the case of a person (details supplied). [17560/20]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is currently managing a large number of review requests for the Covid-19 Pandemic Unemployment Payment (PUP) re-rate at this time. For this reason we are not in a position to respond to enquiries as promptly as we would like.
Following a review of the person’s record, I am pleased to inform you that his PUP has been re-rated to €350 per week. Any arrears due will issue this week.
I trust this clarifies the matter.
