Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 1 December 2020
499. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Social Protection when a disability allowance payment review will be finalised with arrears due paid to a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40355/20]
View answerFollowing a review of the entitlement of the person concerned, it was found that she had a decrease in her means from 18 March 2020. Based on the information provided to my Department, an increased rate of disability allowance (DA) was awarded.
The first payment will be made to their chosen payment method on 2 December 2020. A letter issued to the person concerned informing her of this on 26 November 2020. Arrears of payment due have issued to the person concerned.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
