260 Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Social Protection the position regarding an appeal for disability allowance in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Offaly; and when a decision will issue. [28566/11]
View answerFurther to my response to Parliamentary Question Ref. No. 25881/11 on 27 September 2011, I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that there is no update to the information given previously. The Social Welfare Appeals Office functions independently of the Minister for Social Protection and of the Department and is responsible for determining appeals against decisions on social welfare entitlements.
