123. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection when a disability allowance payment will be approved for a person (details supplied) in County Dublin who is currently attending the Mater hospital and has three dependent children; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI confirm that a review of the entitlement of person in question to Disability Allowance (DA) from July 2014 has been completed. It has been established that the person concerned had an entitlement to DA up to 3rd November 2014.
The person in question was disallowed from 4th November 2014 as there was a change of circumstances as a result of which she was deemed not to be habitually resident in the State and, therefore, not entitled to DA. The person in question has been notified of the revised decision, the reason(s) for it and advised of her rights of review and appeal.
