258. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if an application by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry for illness benefit will be processed. [40212/18]

The person concerned made an application for Illness Benefit for the period from 28th August 2018.
The claim could not be paid as the person concerned was receiving Jobseeker's Benefit and has been paid up to 26th September on this claim.
The Jobseeker's Benefit claim is now closed and it is expected that payment of Illness Benefit will issue this week.
I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
