Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 January 2019
1082. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection the reason a person (details supplied) did not receive all of their illness benefit; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [1122/19]
View answerThe Department received a medical certificate (MC1) for a single week dated from the 22 October to the 29 October but has not received an application form (IB1) for illness benefit.
An application form (IB1) for Illness Benefit was issued to the person concerned for completion in order to clarify the details of his claim. When that is completed and returned the claim will be processed.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
