I propose to take Questions Nos. 170 and 171 together.

The information requested by the Deputy is included in the attached tabular statements and includes weekly breakdowns by PUP rate since the start of the year. Statistics on the number and ages of persons receiving the various rates of payments are published each week by my Department at www.gov.ie/dsp/statistics.
