The illness benefit claim for the person concerned is currently certified up to the 4th December 2018. The claim is paid up to 17th November 2018 and all arrears due have also been paid.

Any further medical certificates should be submitted to the Department as soon as possible so that further payments can issue.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
