Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection
Issues Facing Lone Parents: Discussion (Resumed)
11:00 am
Ms Simonetta Ryan:
I will ask Ms Ward, a divisional officer in Tallaght, to talk about what is happening there in the activation of lone parents and the figure of 9,000 to which the Deputy referred. I emphasise that the issue of homelessness is not within my area. It is a much bigger issue. Senator Kevin Humphreys mentioned the targeted approach which we will pick up in our comments.
