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.
I am pleased to advise the Deputy that the redundancy lump sum claim for the individual concerned has been authorised for payment on 23 September, 2010. Due to the volume of redundancy payments processed by my Department, it is not possible to provide an exact date on which payment will issue but the claimant should allow for a 7 to 10 day period for receipt of payment following authorisation.
