Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

Impact of Means Testing on Farm Assist and Other Social Welfare Schemes: Discussion

Mr. Paul Smyth:

In relation to the assessment and net versus gross income, the housing income support is based on net means as well. I wish to put that out there.

On the questions from Senator Wall, there is quite a lot of agreement with what is being said from this side. It is a matter of us coming together on this and powering through this and getting something together for the review. We are hopeful that will come about from this.
