The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is medically certified up to the 2nd December 2018 and now paid up to the 1st December 2018 with all arrears owing to her having been issued. Details of all payments that have issued to the person concerned have been sent to that person.

If the person concerned 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.

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned currently being processed, this particular claim was delayed as a result of an interaction with another Social Welfare scheme payment. My officials expect to have the matter resolved in the next couple of days. When the claim is processed all arrears due will issue without delay.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
