I confirm that my Department received an application for the Carer’s Support Grant (CSG) from the person concerned on 20 July 2023.

The person concerned has been awarded a CSG for the years 2022 and 2023 in the amount of €1,850 for each year. They have also been awarded the once off cost of living payment in the amount of €500. The total payment of €4,200 was paid to the person's nominated bank account on 24 August 2023. Notification of this decision issued to the person on 15 August 2023.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
