The person concerned is currently in receipt of Illness Benefit. A request from her to complete a study course while on Illness Benefit has not been received to date.

The person concerned was contacted by telephone on February 6th, advised of the information needed in order to process her request and given an address for her to send this information. Once full details of her course are received, her request will be processed and a decision issued to her.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
