The Social Development Minister says more jobs are coming to address the number of people on the benefit rising.

Ministry of Social Development statistics show almost eight thousand more people were receiving a main benefit in June compared to March.

As well, close to 81 thousand beneficiaries have moved into work in the last financial year.
