Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2008: Committee and Remaining Stages
12:00 pm
Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)
I cannot put the laying of a report before the House into legislation, however I accept the sentiment. As the Senator knows, the domiciliary care allowance and other changes have been made between my Department and the Department of Health and Children, where we are taking them on board. Yesterday I told the Senator we will take on the customers on an "as is" basis and see how we develop it as we go forward so nobody is disadvantaged in the move. That seems to be satisfactory.
