I propose to take Questions Nos. 668 and 798 together.

I have been in contact with the director of the company concerned who has confirmed that all redundancy payments, outstanding holiday pay and minimum notice payments due to the former employees of the company were paid on 14 September 2016.

Therefore, there will be no claim on the social insurance fund for these payments.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
