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

This lady was notified on the 14th March 2019 that her Domiciliary Care Allowance was awarded on appeal from 1st May 2018.

Arrears due for this period issued with her April 2019 payment on the 16th April 2019.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
