An application for Partial Capacity Benefit (PCB) was received from the person in question on 29th June 2018.

The PCB application and medical opinion have now been updated and a letter has issued to him today. The correspondence includes a statement for the employer to complete, related to dates worked this year. Upon receipt of the returned employer statement, a decision will be made and the person will be contacted.

The Deputy should note that he has continued to receive an Illness Benefit payment during the intervening period.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
