Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 May 2016
492. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application by a person (details supplied) under the disability allowance scheme including when he will issue a decision; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9671/16]
View answerI can confirm that the department is in receipt of an application for disability allowance from the above named person on 16 March 2016.
On 6 May 2016 the person concerned was requested to supply supporting documentation required by the deciding officer in order to make a decision on his eligibility. On receipt of this information a decision will be made and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
