447. To ask the Minister for Social Protection if a person (details supplied) was entitled to an alternative support or payment from his Department during the period in which the person incurred an overpayment; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9611/16]

The person concerned incurred two overpayments on her one parent family payment for the periods 14/02/13 to 24/04/13 and 15/05/14 to 09/07/14 as a result of means assessed due to earnings which were not disclosed to the Department. Both of these overpayments have been fully recouped. The person concerned was not entitled to any other payment during the time she incurred the overpayment.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
