1083. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when the correct amount for the period of certified illness will be restored in respect of an illness benefit claim by a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [45220/18]

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is certified and paid up to 1st November 2018.

If she remains ill and unfit for work, she should forward a further medical certificate to the Department as soon as possible to ensure that payments can continue to issue to her.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is awarded and in payment. He was medically certified to 1st November 2018 and is paid to that date.

If he remains ill and unable to work, he should forward a further medical certificate to the Department as soon as possible to ensure that any payments due may issue.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
