The child benefit claim for the person concerned is currently under review. The claim has been referred to a social welfare inspector for investigation and the inspector’s report is still awaited in the Department. Once the report is received a decision will be made and communicated promptly to the person concerned.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
