Public Accounts Committee

2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 34 - Environment, Community and Local Government

9:00 am

Mr. John McCarthy:

As I understand it, they are new people coming in the door who were not on rent supplement before. I will double-check that as the rent supplement transfer figure is related to how we can claim for moneys that would have previously gone to the Department of Social Protection. I will confirm it for the Chairman.
