The gentleman referred to has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from the 13 October 2016. Payment will issue to his nominated bank account on the 05 January 2017. Any arrears due from 13 October 2016 to 04 January 2017 (less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment) will issue in due course. He was notified of this decision on the 08 December 2016.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
