My Department administers the Social Insurance Fund (SIF) in relation to redundancy matters on behalf of the Department of Social and Family Affairs. There are two types of payment made from the SIF – rebates to those employers who have paid statutory redundancy to eligible employees, and statutory lump sums to employees whose employers are insolvent and/or in receivership/liquidation.
The Redundancy Payments System of my Department does not have on record any current redundancy claim outstanding on behalf of the employer referred to. If the Deputy is in a position to provide further details, I would be happy to pass these on to my Department or, alternatively, contact could be made by the employer directly with my Department.
