PQ 226
226. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if her attention has been drawn to the fact that interruptions in respect of payment of rent support will almost certainly lead to homelessness in view of the fact that persons in receipt of rent support have no other means of providing themselves with a home and that incurring arrears makes it virtually impossible for them to obtain a rental property; if measures can be taken to ensure that the equivalent of a rent support payment continues to be paid to recipients during the course of other investigations such as means testing into their circumstances; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2382/18]
