Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 January 2017
95. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application for a disability allowance in respect of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3565/17]
View answerI can confirm that my department received an application for disability allowance from this man on 19 October 2016.
On 17 January 2017 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 trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
