The Chair of the Licenced Vintners Association has said the "plug needs to be pulled" on the Pandemic Unemployment Payment, days after the payment officially ended.
As of March 29, a total of 44,747 people received the Pandemic Unemployment Payment. Of these, 17,183 are from Dublin.
However, on March 25, all remaining PUP recipients were moved to standard jobseeker’s terms. March 29 was the final day the payment was made.
