Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 May 2014
266. Deputy Dara Murphy asked the Minister for Social Protection when a decision will issue on an appeal for carer's allowance in respect of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 24; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [20311/14]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that an Appeals Officer, having fully considered all of the available evidence, has decided to allow the appeal of the person concerned by way of a summary decision. The person concerned has been notified of the Appeals Officer’s decision. The Social Welfare Appeals Office functions independently of the Minister for Social Protection and of the Department and is responsible for determining appeals against decisions in relation to social welfare entitlements.
