I confirm that the department has received three separate applications for carer's allowance from the person concerned in respect of three care recipients, including the person mentioned above.

Her file has been referred to an investigative officer of the Department who has been asked to report and confirm whether all conditions for receipt of carer's allowance are satisfied in respect of the applicant and the three care recipients.

On completion of the necessary investigations relating to all aspects of her claims a decision will be made and she will be notified directly of the outcome.
