I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s benefit (CARB) from the person concerned on 31 May 2017.

Additional information was requested from the person concerned on 24 July 2017. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and she will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
