This domiciliary care allowance application in respect of the person concerned has been assigned to a deciding officer.  Further medical information in support of the claim has been requested.  Once this is received, the claim will be further considered by the deciding officer and the decision will be notified to applicant as soon as possible.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
