Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection

This lady was notified on the 27th July 2018 that her domiciliary care allowance was awarded on appeal from the 1st July 2017. Arrears due for this period issued by cheque on the 27th July 2018.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
