These appeals have been the subject of correspondence with the local authority. As a result the local authority have decided to revise their decisions in three of the cases. In the remaining case, that of Mr. Porter, the local authority are prepared to make an award, provided satisfactory medical evidence is furnished by him. It is expected that, in view of the revised decisions of the local authority, formal statutory decisions by me on the appeals will not be necessary.
