Mr. John McKeon:

There are no plans at the moment. The number of young people who are not in receipt of a payment or who do not qualify for one is very small. As we have the universal jobseeker allowance payment, a young person's family income would have to be quite high before the disregard would drop them down to a zero payment. The number of young unemployed people who are not on the live register is very small and much lower than the European average.
