To ask the Minister for Social Protection the reason the mortgage supplement relief was reduced in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Meath ; if she will review this decision; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [15563/13]

The minimum contribution that the person concerned must make towards their Mortgage Interest is €32 per week.

As the minimum contribution payable by the person, exceeds the current weekly amount of mortgage interest payable, I regret to advise you that the person concerned has no entitlement to the Mortgage Interest Supplement at this point in time.
