The Social Welfare Appeals Office has advised me that an oral hearing of this case was held on 06th August 2013. At the hearing the person concerned undertook to provide additional information to the Appeals Officer. To date, this information has not been received. As soon as the additional information is received, the Appeals Officer will complete her consideration of the appeal.
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 in relation to social welfare entitlements.
