Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

As the Deputy will be aware, we have increased the social housing income limit by €5,000 in recent months and we now have cost rental, which is an option for people who are above the social housing income limits. We will keep the limits under constant review. We have to take account of rising prices, rising wages and rising housing costs. We will keep them under review, but I would say that when it comes to any income limit or any means test, no matter where you pick or set the level, there will always be somebody who is just above it and other people who are above it as well.
