Following a recent rent review, the clients rent supplement of €670.00 per month was found to be in excess of the maximum limit determined by legislation in July 2013. The maximum rent limit applicable is €610.00 per month.

The client should endeavour to secure a rent reduction or locate alternative accommodation and forward a new application to the Mid Leinster Rents Unit, PO Box 11758, Dublin 24. The client’s rent supplement will remain in payment until the 31^stAugust 2014 to allow time for this.
