Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 July 2022
1258. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Social Protection if a decision has been made on an application for a disability allowance by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40849/22]
View answerI can confirm that my department received an application for disability allowance (DA) from this person on 25 May 2022.
The person concerned has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 11 May 2022. The first payment will be made by his chosen payment method on 10 August 2022.
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.
