Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 2 November 2016
219. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Social Protection if a decision has been made on an application for carer's allowance in respect of a person (details supplied) who is in receipt of carer's benefit; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32823/16]
View answerI confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 21 September 2016.
Additional information was requested from the person concerned on 21 October 2016. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and she will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
