Questions on Promised Legislation

John Brady (Wicklow, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
Last year, when the Taoiseach was the Minister for Social Protection, I secured an amendment to the Social Welfare Act to have a report compiled on the impact of changes made to the lone parent family payment in 2012 in order to see exactly how those changes were panning out and affecting lone-parent families across the State. A commitment was given that the report would be published well in advance of the budget - It was indicated that it would be published in June but it has not yet seen the light of day. Where is this report? Has the Minister seen it or have its findings been mentioned in the discussions relating to the budget? When will this critical report be published?
