Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 November 2015
135. Deputy Michael Creed asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if a person (details supplied) in County Cork is entitled to a carer's allowance; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40259/15]
View answerCarer's allowance (CA) is a social assistance payment, made to persons who satisfy a means test and who are providing full-time care and attention to people who have a disability such that they require that level of care.
I confirm that the department received an application for CA from the person concerned on 16 October 2015. Once processed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
