My Department has no record of an application for disability allowance having being made by this lady. If the person in concerned wishes to make an application, she should fully complete and submit an application form (DA1) so that her eligibility may be determined.

If she has submitted an application for DA in the last few days, there is no need to reapply and my Department will be in touch with her in due course.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
