I can confirm the person concerned is entitled to credited contributions for the period she was in receipt of Carer’s Allowance. Her social insurance record has been credited for the period 4 December 2003 to 31 December 2016 and the record up to 3 May 2017 will be updated shortly.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
