Sinn Féin в целях напоминания своему электорату о себе внесли законопроект по которому переплаченные по ошибке деньги не должны возвращаться назад

New social welfare legislation would save ?55 million – Ó Snodaigh

August 30, 2012

The Sinn Féin spokesperson on social protection Aengus Ó Snodaigh has today launched the draft heads of the Social Welfare (Amnesty Bill) 2012.

Speaking about the bill Deputy Ó Snodaigh said:
“The level of fraud and error in the Irish social welfare system is estimated to account for nearly three and a half per cent of expenditure (3.4%)

Less than one third of this is as a result of fraud and this figure is dropping every year. The other two thirds of overpayments are accounted for by customer and departmental error.

“This draft bill seeks to implement a social welfare amnesty which would offer social welfare recipients the opportunity to report irregularities in the payments made to them. The Department would then correct the payments. Those that avail of the amnesty would not be penalised and the Department would not seek repayment of past overpayments.

“The objective of the social welfare amnesty is to offer the many social welfare recipients who suspect they are receiving an overpayment, whether as a consequence of their own or the Department’s error, to come forward and have the situation rectified. And to enable them to do so without fear that they will be forced to pay back what maybe an unaffordable sum.
