The application from the person concerned was disallowed on the grounds that her weekly means were deemed to be in excess of the statutory limit allowable in her case for disability allowance purposes. Notification of this decision issued on 15 April 2015.

The person concerned was advised of the option to submit further evidence for review or lodge an appeal directly to the Social Welfare Appeals Office. To date neither option has been exercised.
