To ask the Minister for Social Protection the reason it has been deemed that a person (details supplied) in County Kildare is being over accommodated with respect to their rent supplement payment; if she will review the decision to cease their rent supplement payment on the 30 of November 2012; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The person concerned has been awarded rent supplement from the 20th August 2011 on the basis of. S.I. No. 412 of 2007 Part 6 Article 38 which states that a designated person may award a supplement in any case where it appears that the circumstances of the case so warrant. A thorough review is currently being undertaken on his claim. The Department will be in touch with the client this week in relation to outstanding information required.
