An application for disability allowance was received from the person concerned on 29 February 2012. This application was referred to one of the Department’s medical assessors who found that the person was not medically eligible for disability allowance. A letter issued on 28 May 2012 refusing the allowance. The person concerned subsequently forwarded further medical evidence which was referred to a medical assessor. A decision will shortly be made on the review of the person’s application and he will be notified directly of the outcome.
