The person concerned was paid Illness benefit up to the 10th October. The employer of the person concerned confirmed that the person returned to work on the 24th July 2018 and the person's Illness Benefit claim was subsequently closed with effect from the same date and an overpayment was raised for the period 24th July 2018 to the 10th October 2018.
According to standard practice in such cases an Overpayment Letter was issued to the person concerned to inform him of the situation.
On foot of the Deputy's representations I have arranged to have this matter re-examined and the person concerned will be informed directly of the outcome of this review as soon as possible.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
