Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

It is there and it should be there. I will certainly take the details from the Deputy but it is there and the office exists to try to help people to secure alternative employment. I do not know the background of the means test and the issues that were assessed or not assessed. Normally the assessment involves the household's income, savings, shares, investments or property, apart from a person's home. The Deputy has made it clear that the person has no savings.
