210 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs if she knew that when a person in receipt of a disability payment is admitted to hospital for depression their payment is stopped; and whether the measure causes hardship to the patient and their carer because many of the needs of the patient, previously paid for by the allowance, are no longer met and there is an extra burden of paying travel expenses for a carer to visit the patient.
