‘Letters to the Editor’: Welfare Assistance
I assume the Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection is enjoying her ministerial post and the benefits that comes with it. Yes, the hefty pay and allowances.

I assume the Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection is enjoying her ministerial post and the benefits that comes with it. Yes, the hefty pay and allowances.
While she is at it, can social welfare recipients receive their allowances and bus fare benefits within the first two days of every month?
Most of the recipients rely on this Government assistance and look forward to it on every first day of the month. And worse still, some recipients are left out on monthly basis.
Compared to past years, the new changes are not working well as far as I am concerned.
