Single parent families have been left in the dark in Budget 2023, one parent has claimed.
Linda O’Sullivan is a single parent to two children and a representative for parent advocacy group SPARK. She says she was happy overall with allocations made in the Budget, but that the issues of child maintenance and credits for single parents were neglected.
Linda told Dublin Live: “The single person child carer credit is a concern. We don’t know if that was an oversight because they mentioned every other credit besides that. We’re waiting to see if that will be mentioned but there is nothing so far in any government statement.”
