215. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the status of a review regarding the payment of rent allowance in respect of a property (details supplied); the reason payment to the person was not suspended on receipt of reports that rent payment was not being made to the landlord; the action she will take to clarify this situation; and the timeframe for the completion of this review.

I refer to the replies to the Deputy’s previous PQs about this matter. Reference Numbers 42721-17 and 47178-17 refer.
The review of the case has been completed and communicated to the Deputy. Arrangements have been proposed for an amount of unpaid Rent Supplement to be paid directly to the landlord.
I trust that this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
