The supplementary welfare allowance scheme, which includes mortgage interest supplement, is administered on my behalf by the Community Welfare Service of the Health Service Executive.

The Executive has been contacted concerning this case and has advised that it has not received an application for mortgage interest supplement from the person concerned. It has advised that the person concerned should contact his community welfare officer at the local health centre if he wishes to make an application for assistance under the supplementary welfare allowance.
