Initially, with the TWSS, Revenue was asked to complete eligibility reviews for employers and it had completed 95% of eligibility checks by the end of February 2021. In the case of the restart grant scheme, the Department did not specify the proof that may be required to confirm eligibility for the restart scheme. Therefore, it may be difficult to verify the claims paid. Does that effectively give an out to those who were not eligible?
