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

An application for domiciliary care allowance ( DCA) was received from this lady on the 7th March 2019. Applications received at the end of January 2019 are currently being finalised. The application will be considered by a deciding officer in due course and the decision notified to her as soon as possible.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
