The gentleman referred to has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from the 14 December 2017. Payment will issue to his nominated bank account on the 25 January 2018. Any arrears due from 14 December 2017 to 24 January 2018 (less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment) will issue in due course. The gentleman in question was notified of this decision on the 10 January 2018.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
