Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 January 2016
38. Deputy Michael Creed asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection when a person (details supplied) in County Cork will receive a decision on a claim under the disability allowance scheme; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2378/16]
View answerI confirm that an application from the person concerned for disability allowance (DA) was received by the department on 9 November 2015. The application has been referred to a Social Welfare Inspector (SWI) for a report on the person’s means and circumstances. Once the SWI has submitted his/her report to the DA section, a decision will be made on the application and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
