Following a review of the entitlement of the person in question, disability allowance (DA) was disallowed with effect from 22 June 2016 as a deciding officer (DO), having taken into account all the available evidence, decided that the person in question has means in excess of the statutory limit for his circumstances. Notification of this decision issued to the person in question on 15 June 2016.

The person in question has been advised of his right to have this decision reviewed by a DO or to appeal this decision to the social welfare appeals office.

I trust that this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
