Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 16 September 2016
758. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application by a person (details supplied) under the carer’s allowance scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25675/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraCarer’s benefit was awarded to the person concerned on 6 September 2016 with effect from 5 May 2016. The first payment is due to issue to their nominated bank account on 15 September 2016.
Arrears of benefit due from 5 May 2016 to 14 September 2016 and the Carer’s Support Grant are also due to issue to the bank account.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
