The local pension subcommittee decided on 14 September 1977 that the person concerned was not entitled to a non-contributory old age pension on the ground that his means exceeded the statutory limit. The claimant appealed and the appeals officer to whom the appeal was submitted directed that a further report be obtained from the social welfare officer. On receipt of this report the appeals officer has upheld the sub-committee's decision.
