The Occupational Injury Benefit claim for the person concerned is both certified and paid up to 14th November 2018.
If he remains ill and unfit for work, a further medical certificate should be submitted to the Department as soon as possible to enable further payments to continue to issue.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
