Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Mobility and Motorised Transport Allowances: Discussion

5:30 pm

Dr. Ambrose McLoughlin:

In relation to the mobility allowance, prior to that time - I did mention 2008 but I can check with Ms Fitzpatrick - the issue has been under observation for some years. The Deputy will appreciate that because of the nature of the issues the Department did not finalise its position until 2009. Is not that correct?
