Social Welfare (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2003: Committee and Remaining Stages.

 

I ask the Minister to examine the manner in which the regulation is being implemented. There are hundreds receiving the allowance on the assumption they can accommodate all duties. One can check on a relative nine or ten times a day and give them the care to which they are entitled while doing a diminished amount of farm work. As the Minister will be aware of such cases in her constituency, I ask her to reconsider the issue and revert to the old regime in terms of interpretation.
