Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 31 May 2016
416. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application by a person (details supplied) under the carer's allowance scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12580/16]
View answerCarer’s allowance was awarded to the person concerned on 17 May 2016 and the first payment issued to their nominated bank account on 26 May 2016.
Arrears of allowance due from 15 October 2015 to 25 May 2016 have also issued.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
