If Deputy Donnelly provides me or my officials with the details of the case, I will be happy to follow it up. When I get hard evidence I can go back and say exactly what is happening. It is not as easy to make a case with anecdotal evidence. I ask the Deputy to give me the details of the case and we will follow it up. We will make sure to get answer. As the Deputy said, an answer is needed one way or the other. Whether the person can get the payment or not, the application should be dealt with. I am happy to follow up on the case and the same applies to any of the Deputies. If they have particular cases that are causing problems for people, we do not want that. I ask Deputies to give the details to me and we will follow up on them.
