Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for Social Protection if he will consider amending the regulations for persons applying for the State contributory pension; his views on whether examining a situation in which persons had contributions up to 47 to 48 years during that period but had no contributions resulting in their pensions being reduced, notwithstanding the fact that they could have easily had over 1,500 reasonable contributions during their lifetime is equitable; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
