A reply issued from the ERHA to the Deputy on 26 April. The application for a mobility allowance was refused on medical grounds following an assessment and a subsequent appeal, both of which were conducted and reviewed by designated medical officers.

An application for a primary medical certificate was made on 2 February. It is being considered by the community care area 3, Dublin south city. If criteria is met a certificate will be recommended for issue.
