View answerThe person concerned is currently a qualified adult on her partner's social welfare claim. This means that her partner is currently in receipt of a payment for her.
The monetary difference between this payment and her illness benefit entitlement is being calculated and processed currently, and any arrears due to her will be paid as quickly as possible.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
