Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 9 June 2016
99. Deputy Tom Neville asked the Minister for Social Protection when payment will issue to a person (details supplied) following a carer's allowance appeal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15176/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe appeal of the person concerned to the independent social welfare appeals office against a refusal of carer's allowance (CA) has been allowed and the application was awarded on 7 June 2016. The first payment of CA is due to issue to her nominated bank account on 23 June 2016. Any arrears of allowance due (less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment) will issue in due course. The person concerned was notified of these details on the 7 June 2016.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
