10 Deputy Seán Crowe asked the Minister for Social Protection her views on the fact that community welfare officers have been refusing to award fathers, who have shared custody of their children, rent supplement for anything more than a one bedroom flat which effectively denies them their right to family life; and if she will issue a memo to community welfare officers directing them to award rent supplement for the appropriate number of rooms to ensure that fathers with shared custody can have overnight access to their children.
