Carer's Allowance (CA) is a means-tested social assistance payment made to a person who is habitually resident in the state and who is providing full-time care and attention to a child or an adult who has such a disability that, as a result, they require that level of care.
I can confirm that the person concerned is currently in receipt of the full weekly rate of €236 of CA for a carer under 66 years of age plus an increase for one qualified child of €50 per week.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
