Amharc ar fhreagraThe spouse of the person in question is in receipt of carer’s allowance at a rate of €204 basic rate and €14.90 per child for five children. This amounts to a rate of €278.50 weekly rate. She was in receipt of a supplementary welfare allowance whilst awaiting a decision on the carer’s allowance application. She received supplementary welfare allowance at a rate of €186 basic rate and €14.90 per child for five children, which totalled to a weekly rate of €260.50. This was her portion of the supplementary welfare allowance. Supplementary welfare allowance payments were deducted from the carer’s allowance arrears payment due. The spouse of the person concerned was due carer’s allowance arrears at a rate of €18.00 per week for 42 weeks from the period 20/10/12 - 8/8/12. This amount was the difference between the personal rate on carer’s allowance and supplementary welfare allowance as outlined above. This totalled €756.00. Arrears issued on the 9/8/12 for €1034.50, which was arrears due plus one week’s payment for the week of 9/8/12.
