Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 July 2019
666. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when a decision will be made in regard to an application for disability allowance by a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28064/19]
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 2 May 2018. The first payment will be made on 10 July 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
