259 Deputy Alex White asked the Minister for Social Protection in view of the phenomenon whereby adult children who are in receipt of social protection payments temporarily return to the family home, principally as a result of a loss of financial independence induced by unemployment and or overwhelming debt burden, whether she will introduce a period of discretion whereby a parent in receipt of a State retirement pension and a household benefit package would retain the latter benefit, thus allowing some space to come to terms with the implications of such a cohabitation arrangement; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
