Social Welfare Benefits.
4:00 pm
Mary Hanafin (Dún Laoghaire, Fianna Fail)
One new measure being introduced is that one must have been an existing tenant for six months, but if one is forming a new household, one has to go through the full housing assessment to qualify for housing, unless one is homeless, which is one of the criteria. I will of course raise all aspects of tax, particularly in this scheme. It is costing the State half a billion euro.
