Written answers
The person concerned is in receipt of state pension (contributory), paid under an agent arrangement by direct transfer to the account of the nursing home in which he resides. The agent he nominated for the purpose of administering his pension is an employee of the nursing home. This arrangement has been in place since 13 February 2015.
I have asked my officials to contact the Deputy to discuss the matter in more detail.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
