Following a review of the entitlement of this lady’s disability allowance (DA), it was disallowed with effect from 25 October 2017 as she was deemed to have means in excess of the statutory limit for her circumstances. The person in question has been advised of her right to appeal this decision to the social welfare appeals office.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
