Question:

Written answers

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is paid up to date.

She is currently certified up to 16th November. If she remains ill and unfit for work after that date, she should submit further medical certificates to the Department to ensure payments can continue to be made.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
