410 Deputy Willie Penrose asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs the reason, in the context of a person making an application for jobseeker’s allowance, that a person’s partner’s income is not reduced by the amount of mortgage that is being paid, together with VHI payments, travel expenses and other such expenses, whereby the failure to allow such expenses deprives people of application for jobseeker’s allowance, where it is properly due, since if such expenses were allowed, the level of household income available is negligible; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
