Rent allowance to the person concerned was overpaid due to non-disclosure of information pertinent to the calculation of her entitlement. My Department has recently written to the person concerned and explained the reasoning behind the overpayment. The person concerned is currently is in receipt of her full entitlement to rent supplement based on her household circumstances. If these circumstances change in the future, her entitlement to rent supplement can be reviewed.
