The person concerned has been awarded a widow's, widower's or surviving civil partner's (contributory) pension at the weekly rate of  €202.90 with effect from the 29th May 2020.  Payment of pension will commence at her nominated Post Office from the 3rd July 2020.  She will also receive arrears of pension due from the 29th May 2020 on that same date at her nominated Post Office.

A decision letter to that effect has been posted to her home address. 

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
