Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 March 2018
953. Deputy James Browne asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if a carer's allowance application by a person (details supplied) will be approved; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [12282/18]
View answerCarer's benefit (CARB) is a PRSI based payment, made to persons who are providing full-time care and attention to a person who has such a disability that they require that level of care.
An application for CARB was received from the person concerned on 28 February 2018. The application is currently being processed and once completed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
