I confirm that a request for a means review from this lady for disability allowance (DA) was received by the Department on 6 December 2018.

The application has been referred to a Social Welfare Inspector (SWI) for a report on the person’s means and circumstances. Once the SWI has completed their report, a decision will be made and this lady will be notified directly of the outcome.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
