On 1 January 2011, the Department assumed responsibility for making redundancy payments from the Social Insurance Fund. The processing of such payments was previously the responsibility of the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Innovation. I can confirm that eighteen statutory redundancy lump sum claims in respect of the company concerned were received in September last year. While I regret the delay in processing the claims, which is due to the high level of claims on hand, I can confirm that these claims will be processed during April.
