The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned has now been processed and any arrears owing to her have been issued.

If she remains ill and unfit for work, she should forward further medical certificates to the Department as soon as possible to enable payments to continue to issue.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
