136. To ask the Minister for Social Protection when it is expected that outstanding matters relative to rent support, are likely to be resolved in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Dublin having particular regard to the fact that their landlord has given them an extension of time in this regard; if urgent consideration will be given in view of the fact that arrears have arisen from a period during which their rent support was withdrawn and though restored, did not reflect in full the arrears period; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The files of the persons concerned have been re-examined by my officials. The persons concerned have received their full rent supplement entitlements in respect of the periods that they have been deemed eligible. There are no arrears of rent supplement due.
Any arrears of rent considered outstanding are a matter between the landlord and tenant.
