Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 9 May 2019
162. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if arrears of a disability allowance payment will be expedited in respect of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [20221/19]
View answerThis lady has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 5 December 2018.
A letter issued to this lady on 3 May 2019, informing her arrears of payment due for the period 5 December 2018 to 26 March 2019, would be paid by her chosen payment method on 8 May 2019.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
