Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 November 2018
1014. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if a decision has been made on an application for illness benefit by a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [44608/18]
View answerAn Illness Benefit (IB) claim was received on 24th September 2018 for the person concerned. Unfortunately, the claim was disallowed as he did not meet the PRSI conditions required for payment of IB.
If he has an urgent financial need, he should contact the Community Welfare Service through the local Intreo Centre.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
