Written answers

An Increase for a Qualified Adult is in payment for the person concerned.  If the person concerned wishes to claim their State Pension contributory, they need to inform my Department by writing to the Department of Social Protection, Social Welfare Services Office, College Rd, Sligo, F91T384, advising which payment they wish to claim.

Officials in my Department have been in direct contact with the person concerned who advised that they are submitting the required information to my Department. On receipt of this, their State Pension (contributory) will be put into payment.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
