Social Welfare Offices
Dail Éireann — 2022-10-13
============================================================

Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

I want to ask the Minister if additional resources are being given to Intreo centres, in particular community welfare offices, in order to deal with the significant additional requests we are all aware of for supplementary welfare allowance and additional needs and exceptional needs payments, and if she can make a statement on the matter. There is a growing backlog that is holding back people on the housing list who want to move to new accommodation but cannot get payments.
