I will follow up Deputy Deasy's point on rent allowance and the tenancy sustainment protocol that was mentioned. The authorities in Galway are under severe pressure and yet the city does not have a tenancy sustainment protocol in place. Has the flexibility available to social welfare officers in Dublin and Cork been extended to other areas to enable social welfare officers elsewhere to show flexibility to citizens in those areas?
