Disability Bill 2004: Committee Stage (Resumed).
12:00 pm
Frank Fahey (Galway West, Fianna Fail)
On Report Stage in the Dáil I moved a series of related amendments to allow a limited extension of the timeframe for appeals in exceptional circumstances. Subsection 18(4) allows the appeals officer discretion to extend the period for an appeal on a case-by-case basis where there is reasonable cause shown.
