To ask the Minister for Social Protection if persons who transferred from a one parent family payment onto a community employment scheme during the summer months and who were entitled to fuel allowance last fuel season are entitled to a fuel allowance now that the fuel season has commenced in keeping with the premise that you should not lose secondary benefits by virtue of participation on CE.

Yes. Persons who transferred from a one parent family payment onto a community employment scheme since the 16th January 2012 and who were entitled to fuel allowance in the last fuel season and are entitled to a fuel allowance this season can receive the additional payment on top of their CE allowance.
