Willie Penrose

Question:

211. Deputy Willie Penrose asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when a person (details supplied) will receive payment of a disability allowance; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [41995/17]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection (Deputy Finian McGrath)

This lady has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 5 October 2016. The first payment will issue by her selected payment method on 11 October 2017.

Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments or in respect of outstanding overpayments (if applicable).

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
