I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that the appeal from the person concerned has been referred to an Appeals Officer who proposes to hold an oral hearing. The person concerned will be informed when arrangements have been made.
Appeals Officers are statutorily appointed to determine appeals independently of my Department and I have no role in relation to such determinations.
