Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 October 2017
398. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if she will address a matter regarding claims arrears in relation to a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [44956/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm that arrears of carers allowance due from 08 December 2016 to 16 August 2017, issued to the nominated post office of the person concerned on 04 October 2017.
This equates to thirty six weeks payments. Fourteen weeks at a rate of €102.00 and twenty two weeks at a rate of €104.50.
Arrears of carers allowance due from 17 August 2017 to 23 August 2017 issued to the nominated post office of the person concerned on 24 August 2017.
The person concerned was notified of this on 22 August 2017.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
