I confirm that the department is in receipt of an application for carer's allowance from the person in question.

On completion of the necessary investigations relating to all aspects of the case a decision will be made and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

A separate application for a respite care grant was also received from the person in question. A decision to refuse this application and the reason for it was notified directly to the applicant on the 9th of July 2012.
