Minister of State at the Department of Social Protection

Following a successful appeal, this lady has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 2 March 2016. Arrears of payment due have been issued to her home address by cheque on 9 May 2017.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
