The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned has now been processed and any arrears owing to him has been issued.
He is currently certified up to 14th November. If he remains ill and unfit for work after that date, he should submit further medical certificates to the Department to ensure that payments can continue to be made to him.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
