Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 1286 and 1343 together.
I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that appeals from the persons concerned were received on 17th September 2008 and will shortly be referred to an Appeals Officer for consideration. The Social Welfare Appeals Office is an office of the Department that is independently responsible for determining appeals against decisions on social welfare entitlements.
