According to the records of my Department, the person concerned reached pension age on 14 August 2022. Their application for State pension (contributory) was received on 26 April 2022.

The person concerned has been awarded State Pension (contributory) from their 66th birthday at the maximum rate. They were notified of the decision in writing on 23 September 2022.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
