Vol. 272 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Disability Benefit Payment.

9.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare the reason for the delay in the payment of benefit to a person in Waterford (name supplied).

There was an interruption for two weeks in the weekly disability benefit payments of the person referred to by the Deputy. This was due to the misfiling of two medical certificates following the transfer of the claim from one payment system to another. On receipt of the next certificate the error was discovered, and payment of all benefit due was then made. I regret any inconvenience which may have been caused to the claimant.
