This lady submitted an application for disability allowance on 22 August 2016.

The application, based upon the evidence submitted, was refused on medical grounds and the person in question was notified in writing of this decision on 1 June 2017 and of her rights of review and appeal. No appeal/review has been received to date.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
