Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 12 April 2017
213. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Social Protection if a decision has been made on an application for invalidity pension by a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18603/17]
View answerThe lady referred to has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from 9 March 2017. Payment will issue to her nominated post office on 20 April 2017. Any arrears due from 9 March 2017 to 19 April 2017, less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment, will issue in due course. The lady in question was notified of this decision on 11 April 2017.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
