The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is certified to 25th November 2018 and payments are currently up to date. If the customer remains sick and unfit for work after that date, medical certificates should be forwarded to the Department as soon as possible to ensure that payments can continue to be made.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
