The person concerned applied for disability allowance on 25 January 2011.

In order to determine her weekly means her file was forwarded to her local social welfare inspector. I understand the inspector will call to the person shortly to carry out a means assessment. A final decision on her entitlement to disability allowance will be given on receipt of the social welfare inspector's report. The customer will be notified directly of the outcome.
