Due to the fact that claims were being processed on two separate computer systems prior to migration of all invalidity pension claims to the new computer platform in May 2011, a breakdown of claims disallowed in 2010 is available only for the period 1 January 2010 to 30 November 2010 and, for 2011, from 1 June-31 December 2011.
