Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

The Tánaiste stated in the House that it was intriguing that the requirement to apply for a pension within six months does not apply to any other public service pension. Is it intended to make the application system for all pensions equitable, in the sense that a number of people who did not apply in time for what might be called public service pensions, having reached pensionable age, were denied their full pension? Is it intended to change the law to create equity in that regard?
