The person concerned has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 20 February 2019. The first payment was made by her chosen payment method on 26 June 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.
