Written answers
The person concerned submitted an application for disability allowance (DA) on 21 May 2018. Their application, based upon all the evidence submitted, was disallowed on medical grounds as it was decided that they were not substantially restricted in taking up employment. The person concerned was notified in writing of this decision on 10 July 2018.
Further medical evidence was received and a review of this decision was carried out. The original decision was upheld and the person concerned was notified in writing on 12 September 2018.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
