Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 November 2018
255. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the status of a carer's allowance for a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [49594/18]
View answerI confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 19 June 2018. Additional information in relation to the person’s application was requested by a deciding officer on 1 October 2018 and again on 12 November 2018.
Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
