This lady submitted an application for disability allowance on 11 July 2017.

The application, based upon the evidence submitted, was refused on medical grounds and she was notified in writing of this decision on 20 September 2017 and of her rights of review and appeal. This lady submitted further medical evidence which is currently with the deciding officer for their consideration. The person concerned will be notified in writing once decision has been made.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
