The person concerned was refused carer's allowance on the grounds that, based upon the medical evidence provided in support of the application, the care recipient is not so disabled as to require full time care and attention as prescribed in regulations. On 22 December 2011, she was notified of this decision and the reason for it. Additional medical evidence was received and forwarded to the medical assessor for further consideration. The person in question will be notified directly of the outcome of the review in due course.
