I am advised by the Social Welfare Appeals Office that an Appeals Officer having fully considered all the evidence disallowed the appeal of the person concerned. The person concerned has been notified of the decision. The Social Welfare Appeals Office functions independently of the Minister for Social Protection and of the Department and is responsible for determining appeals against decisions on social welfare entitlements.
