The person concerned applied for farm assist on 3 April 2007. His details have been forwarded to a Social Welfare Inspector for investigation. On completion of enquiries a decision will be made and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome. Under Social Welfare legislation decisions in relation to claims must be made by Deciding Officers and Appeals Officers. These officers are statutorily appointed and I have no role in regard to making such decisions.
