Social Welfare Benefits
Dail Éireann — 2020-09-22
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

There has been an improvement in the processing times. There were differences in the times taken to process claims. Will the Minister bear in mind the fact that it does not always apply that a payment will issue to a person while waiting? There are some circumstances where long delays take place. Due to the hardship this causes, I would be grateful if that were looked at again.
