I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that, an oral hearing of this case took place on 15 October 2009 and the Appeals Officer is now considering the appeal in the light of all the evidence submitted, including that adduced at the oral hearing. The Chief Appeals Officer will write to the Deputy when the appeal has been determined.
