Question for the masses - Company Sick Pay

Right, who can help me with this?

Basically Ive got a client who is self employed alongside his wife. Now she has recently had surgery that puts her out of work for the next 3 months. Ive told her to get a sick note from the doctors, but what I am not sure about is who pays the SSP?

*Would his (Ltd) company pay it then claim it back?

*Would the state pay it straight out?

*She is getting a personal allowance every month, could she keep paying herself that and not get SSP?

I havent done this in a while so am a bit rusty, sorry
