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

The claim is both medically certified and paid up to 27 November 2018. If the customer remains ill and unfit for work, a further medical certificate should be submitted to the Department as soon as possible in order for further payments to issue.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
