Social Welfare Bill 2022: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-30
============================================================

Claire Kerrane (SF), Roscommon-Galway

I had initially raised this issue with the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science because I had presumed, like the Minister opposite, that it was a matter for him. However, the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science redirected me to the Minister, Deputy Humphreys, because of the impact it would have on social welfare supports. I understand that there can be some income supports when one is on an apprenticeship. The Minister cited the one-parent family payment in this regard.
