The Department has 7 statutory redundancy rebate applications on hand in relation to the company concerned. These claims were submitted on–line but as yet no signed forms have been received in most cases. An application is not valid until a hard copy of the signed form is received by the Department. These claims pre-date the recent announcement with respect to this company.

To date, no applications for statutory redundancy payments have been received in respect of the recently announced redundancies at the company to which the Deputy refers.

Claims are processed in the order in which they are received.
