Committee on Budgetary Oversight
Report of the Commission on Taxation and Welfare: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Br?d O'Brien:
On the Deputy's question about supports for people who go from a welfare payment into work, we need to make a system, and we should be able to with all the technology at our disposal, that allows somebody making that journey, or thinking about it, to access all the information they require and make an informed choice. If something like the support Mr. Lynch has outlined is available, the system should make it accessible in a relatively straightforward manner rather than having to meet somebody in person.
