Written answers

Minister for Social Protection (Deputy Heather Humphreys)

I can inform the Deputy that for the period from 1st January to 6th October 2024 inclusive, a total of 177,262 Personal Public Service Numbers (PPSNs) have been allocated by my Department. Of these, 43,258 were in respect of new born children whose birth has been registered with the General Register Office.

I trust this clarifies matters for the Deputy.
