An application for domiciliary care allowance (DCA) was received on behalf of the child concerned on the 26th July 2016. The original decision in the case was not to allow the application, as it was considered that the child did not meet the qualifying criteria. Following a review of that decision, the applicant has been notified that DCA has now been awarded in this case.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
