According to the records of the Department, the person concerned has not submitted an application for income support. If the person concerned is not currently fit to resume work, he should contact his doctor to obtain the MC1 and MC2 forms, for submission to the Illness Benefit section of the Department. Should he not have sufficient means to meets his needs in the interim, he should contact the Community Welfare Service in Naas.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
