From today’s ‘Irish Examiner’: “Information from the Department of Social Protection shows 30,614 Disability Allowance claims were decided last year, of which 14,800 were initially refused. There were also a large percentage of cases which, after appeal, were granted. Last year, 5,220 appeals were decided by the Social Welfare Appeals Office and 3,384 were allowed.”
