I confirm that my department received applications for carer’s benefit from the person concerned in respect of her two daughters on 21 August 2017 and 6 September 2017. The applications are currently being processed and once completed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
