Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 February 2017
245. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application for carer's benefit in respect of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9191/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI confirm that my department received an application for carer’s benefit from the person concerned on 21 December 2016.
Additional information was requested from her on 2 February 2017. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and she will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
