I support what Senator Garvey has said. I appreciate that it might be in people's interest to apply online but I still do not understand why the form cannot be made available. Not everyone can send an email seeking the form and as some people cannot even work a computer, a hard copy should be an option.

In the case of those who had been in receipt of the PUP previously and who had received it for 17 weeks from March onwards but who are not in receipt of the payment at present, do they qualify for the Christmas bonus?
