Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 March 2017
188. Deputy Willie Penrose asked the Minister for Social Protection when an application for disability allowance by a person (details supplied) will be adjudicated upon; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15982/17]
View answerThis man has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 15 February 2017. The first payment will be made by his chosen payment method on 19 April 2017.
Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments or in respect of outstanding overpayments (if applicable).
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
