And the payslip attached is for 8 weeks, My flat entitlement is listed as €450, my means as €250 which was deducted. I just want to know what this means is based on. I am working part time but want to know if this is means per week, per month, overall. There's nothing saying what it's based upon. I am 21. Thanks.

Perhaps your means are 250 / 8 = €30 something per week?

This is how your rent supplement is calculated

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

So presumably they are paying you roughly €56 per week
