Written Answers. - Disability Benefit Payment.
129.
The person concerned was paid disability benefit to 2 September 1988 after which date payment was disallowed following an examination by a medical referee who expressed the opinion that she was capable of work.
She appealed against the disallowance and arrangements have been made to have her referred to a different medical referee on 2 December 1988. Her entitlement to benefit will then be reviewed in the light of the medical referee's report.
