Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 10 November 2021
158. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Social Protection when a decision will be made on a disability allowance application by a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [55027/21]
View answerThe person concerned has been awarded disability allowance (DA) with effect from 25 August 2021. They were notified of this decision directly in writing on 5 November 2021.
The first payment will be made by their chosen payment method on 10 November 2021. Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments or in respect of outstanding overpayments (if applicable).
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
