271. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when illness benefit and disability allowance arrears will issue in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [14345/19]
View answerThe person concerned is currently in receipt of Illness Benefit at the maximum rate. All arrears due to her have issued.
She is currently paid up to date and medically certified as unfit for work until the 31st March 2019.
The Department has no record of receipt of an application for Disability Allowance from the person concerned.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
