The Carer's Support Grant is an annual payment made to carers by my Department.

The customer concerned has been awarded both the 2017 and 2018 Carer's Support Grants. An amount of €3,400 (€1,700 for 2017 and €1,700 for 2018) will be lodged to her nominated bank account on Thursday 18th October 2018.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
