Social Welfare Benefits.
2:30 pm
Mary Hanafin (Dún Laoghaire, Fianna Fail)
It is a matter for negotiation between the Government and the banks, particularly at the time of recapitalisation. It is one of the criteria mentioned and was a specific part of the framework document published last week. It would be distressing for people if they thought they would also lose their homes. The rescheduling of payments and support available for people through supplementary welfare can help them get over difficulties they are having.
