Written answers

The Carer's Support Grant is an annual payment made to carers who get Carer’s Allowance, Carer’s Benefit or Domiciliary Care Allowance. It can also be paid to certain other carers providing full time care.

The Carer's Support Grant is paid on the first Thursday in June each year. This year, it will be paid on Thursday 4th June.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
