569. To ask the Minister for Social Protection the reason the relevant papers requested for an appeal lodged on 22 November 2016 have not been forwarded to the appeals office despite numerous requests for same; the reason for his Department's delay in making a submission to the appeals office; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The appeal of the person in question was delayed due to an administrative oversight. However this has now been rectified and the file has been sent Social Welfare Independent Appeals office. The delay in processing this appeal is regretted.
I trust that this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
