I can confirm that my Department received an application for disability allowance (DA) from this person on 10 December 2021. 

On 15 December 2021 the person concerned was requested to confirm if they wished to have an agent appointed in respect of their DA claim.  The agent would act on behalf of the person concerned.  On receipt of this confirmation, a decision will be made on their DA application and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
