140. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application by a person (details supplied) under the invalidity pension scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20427/16]
View answerThe person concerned has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from the 12 May 2016. Payment will issue to her nominated account on 21 July 2016. Any arrears due from the 12 May 2016 to 20 July 2016 (less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment) will issue in due course. The person in question was notified of this decision on 06 July 2016.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
