ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 19th NOVEMBER 2013

Question

Following the publication of the breakdown of Long Term Incapacity Allowance benefits by percentage award in Figure 16 of R.134/2013, will the Minister produce for members figures to show the change, if any, in high percentage awards (for example greater than 70%) over the 5 year period 2008 – 2012?

Answer

The number of Long-Term Incapacity Allowance (LTIA) claims with a 70% or higher payment rate is shown in the table below. Across the five year period the total has remained relatively static, with a small decline of 5 claims (1%) between 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2012.
