An application for domiciliary care allowance was received from the person concerned on 20 April 2018. The application was not allowed as the child was not considered to satisfy the qualifying conditions for the allowance. A letter issued on 3 July 2018 setting out the decision of the deciding officer to refuse the allowance.
A review of this decision was requested on the 24 July 2018. The application is currently being re-examined by a deciding officer who has requested additional information in support of the review. When this information is received a revised decision will be made, if warranted. The person concerned will be notified of the outcome of the deciding officer's review as soon as it is completed.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
