The person concerned attended the Intreo Centre in Parnell St with her social worker and made an application for supplementary welfare allowance. The Designated Person requested her to provide some additional information in support of her application in relation to her means. As the department was advised that she was not living alone, information will therefore need to be provided with regard to the means of the person she is living with in order that her application can be processed. To date the person concerned has not submitted the requested information.
