Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 July 2013
359. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection if and when carer's allowance will be granted in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [36711/13]
View answerThis application for carer's allowance was disallowed by a deciding officer on the 11 of May 2013 on the grounds that the carer is not providing full-time care and attention in accordance with the relevant legislation.
The person in question has appealed this decision.
A submission is being prepared by the Department and the file and all relevant papers will be forwarded to the Social Welfare Appeals Office shortly for determination.
