I can confirm that the Department received an application for Disability Allowance (DA) from the person concerned on 25 May 2023. The application was not complete as it was missing vital information, requested to make an assessment of eligibility. On 13 June 2023, the person concerned was contacted by the Disability Section to supply this supporting documentation.

On receipt of this information, a decision can be made on their DA application and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
