56. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if and when transfer from jobseeker's allowance to disability allowance may be effected in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [39656/14]
View answerThe application based upon the evidence submitted was refused as the person concerned has means in excess of the statutory limit applied for disability allowance arising from his wife's earnings. The person concerned was notified in writing of this decision on 7 October 2014 and of his right to seek either a review of this decision or appeal directly to the independent Social Welfare Appeals Office.
