I propose to take Questions Nos. 415 and 416 together.

The Health Service Executive has advised that the entitlement of one of the persons concerned to supplementary welfare allowance and rent supplement is as communicated to the Deputy on 31 March 2009 and 28 April 2009. The payment of these allowances is currently under review by an Appeals Officer of the Executive. The other person concerned has not made a claim to supplementary welfare allowance or rent supplement.
