There was a delay in payment to the person concerned as they were transferring from Partial Capacity Benefit back to Illness Benefit.
This has been processed and their Illness Benefit claim is now in payment. Arrears have issued paying them fully up to date, and their weekly payment is due each Thursday going forward.
I trust this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
