The person concerned applied for disability allowance on 24 January 2011. The medical evidence supplied was referred to a medical assessor who was of the opinion that the person was not medically suitable for disability allowance. The deciding officer accepted this opinion and refused the claim and the person was notified in writing of this decision on 13 April 2011.
If the person's circumstances have changed since his last application it is open to him to make a new application for disability allowance and his entitlement will be examined.
With regards to participating on a community employment scheme, the person concerned should contact his nearest Employment Services Office, formerly FÁS Office, who will advise him on this matter.
