An application for state pension (contributory) from the person concerned was received on 22 April 2016. As the person has been self-employed, the S-class social insurance element of their contribution history is currently being examined and verified. On completion, the application will be decided by a Deciding Officer and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome, in writing, without delay.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
