Having reviewed the circumstances of this case I can confirm that the person concerned is in receipt of the maximum rate of State pension (non-contributory) of €219.00 per week along with Living Alone Allowance of €7.70 per week and Fuel Allowance (during the fuel season) of €20 per week. I can also confirm that the Department has been served with a Court order which it is legally obliged to comply with. Therefore, any meaningful review of the person’s circumstances would appear to be a matter for the Court that made the order in this case.
