144. To ask the Minister for Social Protection to expedite the assigning of a deciding officer and in turn the decision to provide carer's allowance payment to a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17365/16]

I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 18 January 2016. Additional information in relation to the person’s application, which was omitted by the applicant, has been requested by a deciding officer. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
