290. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the status of an application for a disability allowance by a person (details supplied); and when they can expect a decision on their case. [11009/19]

The person concerned has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 19 December 2018. The first payment will be made by his chosen payment method on 20 March 2019.

Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments (if applicable).

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
