Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 November 2017
210. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if a carer's allowance for a person (details supplied) will be granted; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [51252/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm my office received an application for carer's allowance from the person concerned on 9 August 2017.
Additional information was requested by a deciding officer on 16 November 2017 in order to determine the entitlement. Once this information is received, the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
