To be eligible for benefits, a person must have spent a certain amount of time in one (or more) of the Mother and Baby or County Home Institutions listed in table 1 or table 2 below.
Table 1 lists the institutions relevant for general payment, work-related payment and health supports, while those listed in Table 2 are relevant for the general payment and health supports only.
If the institution(s) you spent time in is not on these tables, then the institution is not included in the Payment Scheme and you are not eligible.
You will see that the tables include a ‘concluding year’. In order to be considered for benefits under the Payment Scheme, you will need to have entered the institution on or before 31 December of the concluding year.
