I can confirm this gentleman has been in receipt of disability allowance (DA) since 2 April 2014. A review of his means is currently taking place.

His file has been referred to a Social Welfare Inspector (SWI) for a report on his means. Once the SWI has submitted his/her report to DA section, the review will be completed and this gentleman will be notified directly of the outcome.

I trust this clarifies the situation for the deputy.
