Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 7 November 2017
1250. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the status of an application for a disability allowance by a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [46594/17]
View answerThis gentleman submitted an application for disability allowance on 19 July 2017.
The application, based upon the evidence submitted, was refused on medical grounds and the person in question was notified in writing of this decision on 27 October 2017. He was also notified of his right to a review of this decision or to appeal it to the independent Social Welfare Appeals Office.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
