Social Welfare Appeals
4:00 am
Éamon Ó Cuív (Galway West, Fianna Fail)
I have a lot of information here but unfortunately I do not have information on that aspect. It is available in the appeals office report, a copy of which I am sure the Deputy has seen. I have examined this a few times. Off the top of my head, means tested cases tend to be a large number and are protracted. Medical cases apply to carers allowance, illness benefit and so on. It is fair to say that the shortest cases involve things like whether the person concerned has enough contributions because they tend to be fairly black and white.
