The person concerned was awarded a UK pension and arrears due were received in this Department.

As they were in receipt of a payment from this Department for the same period, my Department has recouped €720.00 for the overlapping period.

A letter has issued to the person concerned and outstanding arrears of €6,972.36 will issue shortly.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
