View answerThe Social Welfare Appeals Office has advised me that, having carefully considered all of the evidence in the case, an Appeals Officer allowed the appeal of the person concerned. The person has been informed of this decision.
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.
