79. Deputy Jack Wall asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection the position regarding an application for domiciliary care in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [27403/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person concerned applied for domiciliary care allowance in respect of her child on the 30th March 2015. The application was disallowed as it was considered that the child did not meet the eligibility criteria for the allowance. A decision letter issued to her on the 3rd July 2015 advising of the decision.
In the case of an application which is refused the applicant may submit additional information and ask for the decision to be reviewed or they may appeal the decision directly to the Social Welfare Appeals Office. The person concerned has been advised of these options in the decision letter.
