The Illness Benefit claim for the person concerned is in payment and all arrears owing to them have been issued.

The claim is both medically certified and paid up to date.

If the person concerned remains ill and unfit for work, a further medical certificate should be submitted to the Department as soon as possible in order for further payments to issue.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
