The application from the person in question was disallowed on 18 February 2015 on the basis that he is deemed unsuitable on medical grounds for disability allowance purposes.

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