The person concerned is currently in receipt of Jobseeker's Allowance of €274.70 with means of €63.00. His file has been referred to a Social Welfare Inspector for review and he will be contacted shortly to arrange to meet with the Inspector to establish his means.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
