Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection: Energy Poverty: Discussion (Resumed) (28 Feb 2024)

Rose Conway-Walsh: ...for this. Let housing aid for older people or housing aid for people with disabilities come under the local authorities. Let us not have all of these most vulnerable trapped in the middle of these schemes while the Government pats itself on the back for it. In all honesty, as public representatives, we cannot do what we are being asked to do and I would not expect the witnesses to...

Rose Conway-Walsh: ...the time and who were desperately impacted. It is too late in many cases to say now we have paid it back.
