Question:

235. Deputy Seán Haughey asked the Minister for Social Protection if a carer's allowance payment will be made to a person (details supplied) in view of the fact this was approved by the Social Welfare Appeals Office some time ago; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [38566/16]

Written answers

Minister for Social Protection

As a result of an appeals officer’s decision, carer’s allowance was awarded to the person concerned on 5 December 2016 and the first payment will issue to her nominated bank account on 29 December 2016. Arrears for the period 12 November 2015 to 28 December 2016 will issue shortly.

The person concerned was notified on 5 December 2016 of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
