Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 31 January 2013
95. Deputy Paschal Donohoe asked the Minister for Social Protection when a decision will issue on a disability allowance review in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Mayo in view of the fact that supporting medical evidence was submitted to the Department some time ago; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [4842/13]
View answerThe person concerned applied for disability allowance on 2 May 2012. The application was refused on the ground that, based on the information supplied, the person was not medically suitable for disability allowance. The person was notified in writing of this decision on 23 July 2012. The person subsequently forwarded further medical evidence in support of his application which has now been examined. The person’s claim is with a deciding officer who will review the application. If further information is required the person will be notified. The person in question will be notified directly of the outcome of this review as soon as possible.
