Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 April 2019
589. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when arrears of a payment will issue to a person (details supplied); the reason for the delay in issuing same; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [16276/19]
View answerFollowing the submission of further medical evidence by the person concerned, their case has been reviewed and they have been awarded disability allowance with effect from 28 November 2018. The first payment was made by his chosen payment method on 20 March 2019.
Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
