All social protection payments will be made weekly from November 2nd.
They had been moved to every two weeks following the outbreak of Covid-19 to stop people having to collect the money every seven days.
Minister @HHumphreysFG has announced that all weekly social welfare payments, which had been moved to a fortnightly schedule from the end of March, will be fully restored to being paid weekly with effect from Monday, 2nd November, 2020.
