Question:

299. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the details of all payments of illness benefit that have issued to a person (details supplied) in County Donegal in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [51112/18]

Written answers

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is medically certified up to the 2nd December 2018 and now paid up to the 1st December 2018 with all arrears owing to her having been issued. Details of all payments that have issued to the person concerned have been sent to that person.

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.
