As per response to PQ Ref 17329-17 an application form for Supplementary Welfare Allowance has been posted to the person concerned. If they wish to apply for an Exceptional Needs Payment they should complete the application form and send it to the CWS in Maynooth where it will be considered.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
