Payment of fuel allowance under the rural social scheme is made to participants in the scheme who qualify for the allowance and for whom formal confirmation of entitlement to the allowance has been obtained from the Department of Social and Family Affairs. South West Mayo Development Company Limited, which implements the scheme on behalf of the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs in the relevant area, has informed the Department that it has obtained formal confirmation from the Department of Social and Family Affairs that there is no entitlement to fuel allowance in this case.
