The state pension (contributory) entitlement of the person concerned has been reviewed. His weekly pension rate has been increased and he has been notified of the outcome. The higher rate of pension has been put into payment and the person’s due pension arrears will issue shortly.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
