No application for Invalidity Pension (IP) has been received from the person concerned to date. My Department has been in contact with the person in question and she will submit a further application for IP without dely. On receipt of the application, her claim will be processed as quickly as possible and a Deciding Officer will be in direct contact with the her with a decision on her claim.

I trust this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
