I propose to take Questions Nos. 263 and 270 together.

The Health Service Executive (HSE) has advised that the person concerned was refused basic supplementary welfare allowance and rent supplement as she did not meet the habitual residence condition. The HSE further advised that the person concerned appealed the decision to the HSE Appeals Office but that no decision has been made on her appeal to date. The HSE Appeals Office will contact the person concerned directly when a decision has been made on her appeal.
