Michael Ring

Question:

330 Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs the outcome of an appeal for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo. [20001/09]

Written answers

Minister for Social and Family Affairs (Deputy Mary Hanafin)

Further to my response to Question No. 329 on 24 February 2009 and Question No. 813 on 24 March 2009, I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that there is no outcome yet in respect of the appeal from the person concerned. The Chief Appeals Officer will write to the Deputy when the appeal has been determined. The Social Welfare Appeals Office is an office of the Department that is independently responsible for determining appeals against decisions on Social Welfare entitlements.
