Chief Welfare Officer Deborah Norville said Thursday that welfare cheques for this month, dated December 1 and 15, have been issued and clients should have either received them already or will very soon.
She said the next cheques to be issued will be dated December 29, 2023 and are for January 2024.
Additionally, the Welfare Department has made special provisions for its clients during the holiday season.
Norville disclosed that food vouchers will be given to persons who request them as assistance and who do not normally receive cash grants. She assured every effort is being made to accommodate persons who have indicated that they are in urgent need of a food voucher during this holiday season.
