The person in question has been awarded disability allowance (DA) with effect from 5 August 2015. The first payment was made to the person concerned by his chosen payment method on 16 December 2015.
The person in question was in receipt of another social welfare payment during this period. Consequently, the amount of social welfare already paid must be calculated and deducted from any arrears of DA due. Any residual arrears due will be paid to the person in question shortly.
