Following the submission of further medical evidence by the person concerned, their case has been reviewed and they have been awarded disability allowance (DA) with effect from 23 May 2018. The first payment will be made on 28 November 2018.

Arrears of DA due have been calculated and issued to the person concerned on 23 November 2018.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy
