Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 27 January 2021
505. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection if and when disability allowance will be returned to the higher rate in the case of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [3875/21]
View answerFollowing a review of the entitlement of the person concerned, it was found that she had a decrease in her means from her previous assessment and a maximum rate of disability allowance (DA) was awarded with effect from 22 April 2020.
A letter issued to the person concerned informing her of this on 19 January 2021. Arrears of payment due have also issued to the person concerned.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
