His weekly means have been assessed at €371.08 which is €58.28 in excess of the scheduled rate for a person of his circumstances. If the person concerned is not satisfied with the decision of the deciding officer it is open to him to appeal the decision to the Social Welfare Appeals Office in writing, citing his grounds for appeal.
