Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection

I can confirm that the person concerned is in receipt of disability allowance (DA) at the maximum personal rate payable for a single person.

If the gentleman’s circumstances have changed and he wishes to have his claim reviewed, he may apply in writing to the DA section, Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection, Ballinalee Road, Longford.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
