I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned on 5 June 2015. The person concerned was refused CA on the grounds that he was not providing full-time care and attention as required.

The person concerned was notified on 2 November 2015 of this decision, the reason for it and of his right of review and appeal.
