The Illness Benefit claim from the person concerned has been paid up to the 5th May 2019, which is the last date of incapacity for work on her most recent medical certificate.
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.
