Comment on this
The person concerned claimed disability benefit from 11 December 1980 and was paid from 15 December 1980, fourth day of incapacity. In addition he has been paid pay-related benefit. All payment due to 17 February 1981, date of latest certificate received, has been made. The delay in payment was due mainly to the change-over in January 1981 from the system of insurance numbers to RSI numbers for the purpose of payment of benefit.
