The person concerned has failed without good cause to attend an Activation Review Meeting on the 25 of July 2018 or to make contact with their Case Officer to rearrange this meeting. The sanctions imposed have led to both a penalty rate and a benefit suspension on their payment. Decisions in relation to the imposition of sanctions on Jobseekers Allowance payments are undertaken in accordance with Section 141A of the Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act, 2005.
The person concerned may have their payment restored when they attend an Activation Review Meeting and engages with their Case Officer. An appointment for 19 September 2018 at 15:00 has been arranged. If the customer is unhappy with the decision, they may submit a formal appeal to the independent Social Welfare Appeals Office.
I hope this clarifies the matter.
