Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 25 June 2015
35. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if there is a current application under the disability allowance scheme in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Carlow; the reason the person's previous application was refused. [25458/15]
View answerThe application for disability allowance from the person in question was disallowed on 19 June 2015 on the ground that, based on the information supplied in support of the application, he does not satisfy the medical conditionality for the scheme.
The person in question was notified of this decision, the reason for it and of the option to submit further evidence in support of his application for review and of his right to appeal the decision to the Social Welfare Appeals Office (SWAO). If he opts to provide further evidence for review and that review confirms the original decision to disallow, he will retain the right to appeal the decision to the SWAO.
