Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 22 November 2018
206. Deputy Brendan Howlin asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the status of an illness benefit application by a person (details supplied); when payment will issue; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [48688/18]
View answerThe Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is medically certified and paid up to the 15th November 2018.
This customer's next medical certificate was due on the 16th November 2018.
If the person concerned remains ill and unfit for work, a further medical certificate should be submitted to the Department as soon as possible in order for further payments to issue.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
