Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Social Protection if her attention has been drawn to the knock-on repercussions in areas like counties Kildare and Meath where rent supplement cut-off levels are exacerbating an already dangerous situation; if her attention has been drawn to the fact that other services of the State are in increasingly high demand as a result of persons not being able to locate suitable accommodation in their areas, in particular homelessness and emergency accommodation services; if her Department has weighed the additional cost of providing these services against the cost of loosening the rent supplement levels and if so, if she will share those data; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
