I can confirm that this lady is currently in receipt of disability allowance. My department received a request for a review from the person in question on 3 August 2016.

The person concerned was requested to supply supporting documentation required by the deciding officer in order to make a decision on her entitlement. As the information requested has not been supplied, the deciding officer has issued a reminder and we await her response.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
