Minister of State at the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection

The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is paid up to date and he is currently certified to 28th October 2018.  If he remains ill after that date, he should submit further medical certificates. 

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
