559. Deputy Pat Breen asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when an application will be processed for a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17410/18]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection

An application for Domiciliary Care Allowance was received from this lady on 15 February 2018. Applications received during the first week of February 2018 are currently being finalised. The application will be considered by a deciding officer and the decision will be notified as soon as possible.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
