Further to my response to PQ 39354/08 on 11 November 2008, I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that the person concerned was notified on 1 December 2008 that his case has been referred to an Appeals Officer and that it is proposed to hold an oral appeal hearing. A time and date has not yet been arranged for the hearing, but every effort is being made to have the case dealt with a quickly as possible. The Social Welfare Appeals Office is an office of the Department that is independently responsible for determining appeals against decisions on social welfare entitlements.
