Minister of State at the Department of Social Protection

This lady was notified on 24 October 2016 that her domiciliary care allowance has been awarded from 1st August 2016. The first payment of the allowance, along with arrears due, will issue on the 15th November 2016.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
