Written answers
The full year cost of increasing the Working Family Payment income thresholds is difficult to estimate with accuracy given the dynamics of the labour market and wage fluctuations. It is challenging to forecast the number of new claimants who would avail of the payment as a result of a 30% increase to the thresholds as proposed.
It is also difficult to provide a costing for a 30% increase to each Working Family Payment threshold, as this would require costing a different threshold increase for each household size. However, assuming the same threshold increase for all family sizes, in line with increases in recent budgets, a 30% increase to the €765 threshold would equate to a €229.50 increase to the Working Family Payment thresholds. The estimated cost of such an increase across all family sizes is €369m per year.
It should be noted, the estimate is based on the number of recipients at the end of December 2025 only, the latest figures available, which would not include any possible increase in recipient numbers following measures introduced as part of Budget 2026.
Budget 2026 included two Working Family Payment measures: to increase the thresholds for all family sizes by €60 per week from January 2026; and to provide the Fuel Allowance from March 2026 (backdated to January) to recipients of the payment.

Question:620. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Social Protection the plans in place to reduce the number of years that a carer must care for in order to receive the carer’s pension; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16184/26]
View answerWritten answers
The State Pension (Contributory) (SPC) is funded from the Social Insurance Fund through the contributions paid by workers. The rate of payment reflects the number of social insurance contributions paid over a working life. Eligibility for the SPC is based on a number of criteria:
• Being aged 66 or over.
• Having entered the Social Insurance system 10 years before you intend to drawdown your SPC.
• Having a minimum of 520 paid social insurance contributions (i.e., 10 years reckonable PRSI contributions).
The previous Government established the Pension Commission in November 2020 to review the State Pension system, examine the sustainability of the State Pension and the Social Insurance Fund and make recommendations for its future. The Commission was an independent body comprised of knowledgeable and experienced academics, pension experts, members of civil society and representatives of workers and employers.
This Government acknowledges the important role that family carers play and is fully committed to supporting them in that role. Accordingly, carers are not excluded from access to the SPC. Once a person has met the minimum requirement of 520 paid contributions, the State Pension system gives significant recognition to those whose work history includes extended periods outside of paid employment, often to raise families or in a full-time caring role including:
• PRSI credits (which include Credits for Carers Benefit and Carers Allowance).
• Homemaking Disregards and HomeCaring Periods to recognise caring periods of up to 20 years outside of paid employment in the calculation of a payment rate.
Despite these measures, some long-term carers of incapacitated dependants faced barriers in accessing the SPC.
The Pensions Commission was also asked to consider how people who have provided long-term care for incapacitated dependants can be accommodated within the State Pension system. The Commission engaged in a public consultation process and had the benefit of presentations from Family Carer’s Ireland and the National Women’s Council in forming its recommendations on the proposals and the period of care. The Commission recommended that long-term carers should be given access to the SPC and defined long-term caring as caring for more than 20 years. Setting the criteria of more than 20 years is in recognition of the existing access to SPC for carers who may have up to 20 years of caring periods.
Since January 2024, long-term carer's contributions can be awarded to a person who has cared for an incapacitated person for a period of 20 years or more. These contributions will be treated the same as paid contributions for SPC entitlement only and can be used to fill any gaps in a person's contribution record, including satisfying the minimum 520 contributions required for eligibility.
Where a person has less than 20 years caring, they may be entitled to avail of up to 20 years HomeCaring periods or the Homemakers scheme or rely on PRSI credits subject to existing qualification conditions of having 520 paid contributions. All caring periods that are registered with my Department will be recorded on a person's contribution record.
As the actuarial value of the SPC is currently estimated at approximately just under €400,000, it is reasonable to require people claiming a contributory pension to have made at least 520 paid contributions over the term of their working life to qualify for a payment. The Pension Commission strongly supported the retention of the qualifying criterion of 520 paid contributions.
Where a person reaches State Pension age and does not satisfy the conditions to qualify for the SPC or qualifies for less than the maximum rate, they may instead qualify for one of the following:
• The State Pension (Non-Contributory) which is a means-tested payment (based on their share of household means) with a maximum payment of just over 96% of the SPC; or
• An increase for a qualified adult (based on their own means), amounting up to 90% of a full rate SPC where their spouse has a contributory pension; or
• Where their spouse/civil partner or qualified cohabitant is deceased, a Bereaved Partner’s Contributory Pension, which they may claim either based on their deceased partner’s or their own social insurance record. The qualifying conditions for this require fewer contributions paid (260) than the SPC and the current maximum personal rate for those aged 66 or over is €299.30, i.e., the same as the maximum rate of the SPC, with allowances (notably the Living Alone Allowance) payable where applicable.
This combination of all of the above measures ensures that no person with a viable income need falls outside these schemes.
Any future changes to State Pension system, including changes to contributions or the recognition of contributions outside of the existing criteria, would have to be considered in an overall policy and budgetary context and also in the context of the sustainability of the Social Insurance Fund.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.

Ann Graves
Question:621. Deputy Ann Graves asked the Minister for Social Protection if his Department can be flexible when considering an application (details supplied); and if he will consider amending the relevant legislation to ensure that women born before 1946 are eligible for the home carer scheme. [16237/26]
View answerWritten answers
From September 2012, the rates of State Pension (Contributory) paid to those who had a Yearly Average of less than 40 contributions was lowered for all applicants from that date.
As a result, people whose pensions were decided under the 2000-2012 rate bands (i.e., those born before 1 September 1946) were subject to a more generous payment regime than those who qualified afterwards, as a Yearly Average of only 20 contributions per year (out of a possible maximum of 52) could attract a 98% pension.
In recognition that these rate changes may have negatively impacted certain cohorts, in January 2018, the then Government announced an Interim Total Contributions Approach (TCA) to calculate the entitlement of pensioners who reached State pension age on or after 1 September 2012 (i.e., those born on or after 1 September 1946) and who had a reduced rate pension entitlement based on those post Budget 2012 rate bands. As part of the Total Contributions Approach, HomeCaring Periods were introduced for the first time which allowed those who cared for children, or other dependent relatives, claim up to 20 years in lieu of contributions, provided they had a minimum of 520 paid contributions.
If pre-2012 pensioners were also allowed avail of the interim Total Contributions Approach, including HomeCaring Periods, their arrangements, as a group, would be significantly more generous than those of post-2012 pensioners.
It should be noted that since January 2024, long-term carer's contributions can be awarded to a person who has cared for an incapacitated person for a period of 20 years or more. These contributions will be treated the same as paid contributions for State Pension (Contributory) entitlement only and can be used to fill any gaps in a person's contribution record, including satisfying the minimum 520 contributions required for eligibility. Individuals born before 1946 are eligible for long-term carer's contributions where they have been caring for an incapacitated dependent.
Where a person reaches State Pension age and does not satisfy the conditions to qualify for State Pension (Contributory) or qualifies for less than the maximum rate, they may instead qualify for one of the following:
• The State Pension (Non-Contributory) which is a means-tested payment (based on their share of household means) with a maximum payment of 96% of the State Pension (Contributory); or
• An increase for a qualified adult (IQA) (based on their own means), amounting up to 90% of a full rate State Pension (Contributory) where their spouse has a contributory pension; or
• Where their spouse, civil partner or qualifying cohabitant is deceased, a Bereaved Partner's (Contributory) Pension, which they may claim either based on their spouse's or their own social insurance record. The qualifying conditions for this require fewer contributions paid (260) than the SPC for the maximum personal rate for those aged 66 or over.
This combination of both the Contributory, Non-Contributory State pensions and the IQA means that no person with a viable income need falls outside these schemes.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.

Question:622. Deputy Louis O'Hara asked the Minister for Social Protection if a fuel allowance application (details supplied) will be reviewed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16385/26]
View answerWritten answers
Fuel Allowance is an administrative scheme and is payable to people who satisfy the conditions of the scheme and who either live alone or only with certain qualified people. Entitlement to fuel allowance is based on a review of all people residing in the household regardless of their relationship to the customer.
In order for fuel allowance to be paid, the customer must live only with a Qualified Adult, a Qualified Child or a person who would have an entitlement to fuel in their own right.
Following a review of this Fuel Allowance claim the person concerned has had their allowance reinstated with effect from 17 December 2025. A letter notifying them of this decision has issued on the same date.
Any arrears due will issue in due course.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 626 and 627 together.
The Supplementary Welfare Allowance scheme is the safety net within the overall social welfare system in that it provides assistance to eligible people in the State whose means are insufficient to meet their needs and those of their dependents.
Under the Supplementary Welfare Allowance scheme, my Department may make Additional Needs Payments to help meet essential expenses that a person cannot pay from their weekly income.
Table 1 below shows the expenditure on the Additional Needs Payment by county from 2021 to 2025 inclusive. Additional Needs Payments can have a wide range value as the amount paid will depend on a person’s weekly household income, their outgoings and the type of assistance needed. Payments are made for large items, such as help provided in setting up a home for the first time and smaller weekly supplements to assist with ongoing costs. Average payments are not collated as they would have no meaning in these circumstances.
The reporting of the scheme was revised in 2022 to extract more complete information, including the number of claims registered and disallowed. Statistics on the number of Additional Needs Payments applications registered and disallowed are not available for 2021.
Table 2 below shows the number of Additional Needs Payments awarded in 2021 and the number of Additional Needs Payments registered, awarded and disallowed from 2022 to 2025 inclusive by county. The figures do not reflect the number of claims that have been withdrawn, cancelled or are awaiting further information. Applications are assessed on the basis of identified need, income, available resources and essential expenditure. Applications continue to be submitted from individuals who may not qualify when assessed against this criterion, impacting the number of claims not paid.
My Department also publishes statistics on Additional Needs Payments in the Quarterly Statistics report, which is available on gov.ie.

Question:629. Deputy George Lawlor asked the Minister for Social Protection if he will reconsider the decision of his Department to refuse an exemption to a person in receipt of invalidity pension (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16535/26]
View answerWritten answers
Invalidity Pension (IP) is a social insurance payment paid to people who are permanently incapable of work because of illness or disability. A qualifying condition for IP is that a person must be regarded as being permanently incapable of work. For this reason, people on this payment are not expected to return to the workplace. However, permission may be granted to do voluntary work while in receipt of IP.
Based on the information provided the person concerned has been granted permission to set up a non- profit making travel website, while remaining in receipt of IP. If there is any significant change in the type of activities involved or in the event that it becomes a commercial endeavor, the person concerned should contact my department They will then have the opportunity to move to Partial Capacity Benefit (PCB).
PCB is a scheme which assists people in receipt of IP to return to employment. In order to recognise and respond to the reality that some people in receipt of IP have a capacity to engage in open market employment while continuing to need to receive some income support from the State. PCB has also been designed so that there are no restrictions or limits on earnings or on the number of hours a person can work. A person moving to PCB will retain their Free Travel Pass for a period of five years.
If a person who is in receipt of PCB becomes ill and is unable to work for a period, they may revert to their underlying scheme of IP.

Question:630.

[16539/26]
View answerWritten answers
The Emergency Response Payment prevents hardship by providing income-tested financial support to people whose homes are damaged from flooding and severe weather events and who are unable to meet emergency costs for essential needs, household items and structural repair.
In dealing with emergency events the department generally adopts a three-stage approach:
Stage 1 of the scheme is to address hardship in the immediate aftermath of emergency events and provides emergency support payments to cover immediate and essential costs such as the purchase of food, clothing, bedding and essential personal items for immediate use.
Stage 2 involves the replacement of white goods, basic furniture items and other essential household items.
Stage 3 covers the cost of essential structural repairs to a person’s primary residence such as plastering, dry lining, relaying of floors, electrical re-wiring, and painting.
The scheme does not provide a general compensation payment for damage or losses incurred as a consequence of a weather event. The payment does not cover:
• Losses covered by an insurance policy, or which could reasonably be expected to have been covered by an insurance policy.
• Loss of items considered not essential, or luxury items.
• Commercial, agricultural, or business losses.
• Structural loss or damage to rented accommodation.
• Any additional properties that are not occupied and lived in as the primary residence.
• Repair or replacement of motor vehicles.
Unfortunately, and as outlined above, the scheme does not cover the repair or replacement of motor vehicles. Responsibility for ensuring a vehicle and personal effects is appropriately covered by their vehicle insurance rests with the vehicle owner. The affected individuals should check with their insurance providers.
I trust this clarifies the matter.

View answerWritten answers
The objective of the School Meals Programme is to provide regular, nutritious food to children to support them in taking full advantage of the education provided to them. The programme is an important component of policies to encourage school attendance and extra educational achievement.
The School Meals Programme is designed so that meals are provided by contracted food business operators, with the responsibility for food safety and compliance with relevant legislative obligations placed on these professional providers and not on the schools themselves.
My department provides the funding for the meals directly to the school. All schools are responsible for choosing their school meals supplier on the open market, in a fair and transparent manner in accordance with public procurement rules. These rules clearly define the successful tenderers responsibilities and obligations, including adherence to the nutritional standards.
There are some 300 suppliers in the School Meals Programme with the majority of these supplying one to three local schools. These suppliers provide local employment to their respective areas. There are currently eleven meals on wheels organisations supplying forty schools.
The current model for school meal provision already accommodates the participation of community based providers. My officials in this Department have been working with officials in the Department of Rural and Community Development and the Gaeltacht and have compiled a list of supports available to local community organisations who may wish to expand their operation into the school meals area.
This information has been supplied to some rural schools and a range of other community organisations. This can be obtained from my department. Schools can also engage with local cafés, restaurants, local suppliers, and meals on wheels services, a number of which are already supplying schools in the School Meals Programme.
