Delay in WA cost of living payments for seniors

West Australian seniors will have to wait longer for their cost of living bonuses from the state government, as a computer glitch has delayed the distribution of payments.

The payments of $100 for singles and $150 for couples are temporarily placed on hold and pending the effective operation of the data system, payments will commence to 221,000 Seniors Card holders by the end of April.
