People on CE are not added to live reg but "wages are cut" and as these people work they are receiving wages! now cut from €228.70 to €216 is this 4% ??? It is a crime to see people coming to work, having to pay bus fares, lunches etc and getting less than €20 more than those who do nothing. More than this, this is a very unfair way of payment...for example people who are loan parents keep their loan parent payment, people on disability keep this ...however the poor sod who is only on social welfare works 19.5 hours and loses all other payments. Surely it would make more sence to have one payment for anyone on CE...lets say €300 per week and NO Double payments for loan parents or people on Disability...
