The person concerned applied for a back to education allowance (BTEA) payment in September 2010 to pursue a FETAC level 5 child care course. Her application was disallowed on 16th November 2010 as she already holds a qualification at an equivalent or higher level. This decision was reviewed and the disallowance was upheld.
