Domiciliary Care Allowance (DCA) is payable in respect of a child aged under 16, who has a severe disability and requires ongoing continual or continuous care and attention substantially over and above the care and attention normally required by a child of the same age without their disability and the child must be likely to require this level of care and attention for least 12 consecutive months.
An application for DCA in respect of their child was received from the person concerned on 31 January 2023.
The person concerned was notified in writing of the deciding officer's decision on 03 March 2023 and of their right of review and / or appeal.
I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
