Written Answers. - Disability Payments.
53.
Payment of disability benefit to the person concerned was disallowed from 14 October 1986 following examination by a medical referee who expressed the opinion that she was capable of work. She appealed against the disallowance and arrangements are being made to have her examined by a different medical referee at an early date.
Her entitlement to further payment of disability benefit will be reviewed in the light of the medical referee's report following this examination.
