Question:

Written answers

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is paid up to date and any arrears due have been issued.

If the person concerned remains ill and unfit for work, a further medical certificate should be submitted to the Department in order for further payments to issue.

I trust this clarifies matters for the Deputy.
