The client's Rent Supplement of €700 per month is in excess of the maximum limit of €500 applicable to their family composition and location. Following review, the client is requested to secure a rent reduction or source alternate accommodation within the maximum limits. The clients are being given the statutory allocation of 13 weeks to do so. Their Rent Supplement will remain in payment until 31 December 2014.
