The person concerned was awarded a Supplementary Welfare Allowance (SWA) payment with effect from 08/07/2021. Arrears of €1,005 backdated to 02/06/2021 were paid to the person concerned on 28/07/2021.
According to the records of my Department, the person concerned subsequently closed his SWA claim following his return to work.
I trust this clarifies the matter.
