822. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection further to Parliamentary Question No. 1066 of 3 June 2020, if, as already indicated a review of the applicant’s means will be undertaken with a view to increasing their underpayment; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Following a successful appeal the person concerned was awarded a reduced rate of disability allowance (DA) with effect from 11 November 2015.
A review can be requested by the person concerned by writing directly to the DA section outlining the reasons for the request. On submission of this request this lady's means will be re-examined.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
