Social Welfare Bill 2006: Committee and Remaining Stages
5:00 pm
David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael)
I have suggested it should be to the end of November. I understand it is available currently from June to September. Many people would not start to avail of it until mid-August to the end of September. I accept what the Minister said as regards people getting exceptional needs payments, but a great many probably do not apply because they know they are outside the date.
