As outlined in reply to the Deputy’s question number 29976-15 on 16 July 2015, the person concerned is in receipt of Jobseeker’s Allowance at the appropriate rate (for the client, her partner and one child dependant). Means, which have been reviewed since the reduction in the work pattern, are assessed against this payment in respect of her partner’s income.
