Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 19 September 2013
112. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection the extent to which a thorough examination has been done in an effort to record full employment details in respect of all previous employers as previously submitted to her Department in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [39025/13]
View answerThe records of the person concerned have been examined and the Department is satisfied that based on his current social insurance contribution record, the correct rate of pension has been awarded. He has been forwarded a copy of his social insurance record and if he feels there are gaps or omissions in his contribution history, he should contact Client Eligibility Services, Department of Social Protection, Inner Relief Road, Buncrana, Co. Donegal giving details of any additional previous employment that may need to be considered, together with supporting documentary evidence. If, on investigation, his insurance record is deemed to require adjustment, his application for State pension (contributory) will again be reviewed and he will be notified of the outcome without delay.
