552. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if her attention has been drawn to the fact that a person (details supplied) has submitted an application for disability allowance; when it is expected that the application will be processed; when it is expected that a decision will be made on the application; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

I confirm that my department received an application for disability allowance from this gentleman on 7 February 2019. On completion of the necessary investigations on all aspects of the claim a decision will be made and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

The processing time for individual DA claims may vary in accordance with their relative complexity in terms of the three main qualifying criteria, the person’s circumstances and the information they provide in support of their claim.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
