63. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection when the appeal of an application under the disability allowance scheme by a person (details supplied) in County Kildare will be paid, if this payment will include the Christmas bonus; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The person in question has been awarded a disability allowance payment with effect from 29 October 2014. First payment will be made by his chosen payment method on 30 December 2015.
Arrears of DA due will issue in due course once any necessary adjustment is made in respect of other overlapping payments the person was getting in the interim and/or in respect of outstanding overpayment. I can confirm that the gross DA arrears due, i.e. before adjustment, will include the 2014 and 2015 Christmas bonuses.
