The application, based upon the evidence submitted, was refused on medical grounds and the person concerned was notified in writing of this decision on 7 May 2014

If the person wishes to submit further medical evidence her application will be reviewed and she will be notified directly of the outcome. She also has the right to appeal the decision to the independent Social Welfare Appeals Office.
