The Person concerned indicated on her Illness Benefit application form that she wished to have her Illness Benefit payment paid to her employer's bank account and the Department acted on this instruction.

Her payment instruction has now been changed to her personal bank account as requested and her Illness Benefit payments will be issued directly to her.

Any issue arising from the original instruction is a matter between the person concerned and her employer.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
