Comment on this
The unemployment benefit claim of the person concerned was disallowed from 8 September 1982 on the grounds that she did not satisfy the statutory condition of being available for work. She appealed against this decision and, following an oral hearing of her case on 13 October 1982, an appeals officer upheld the disallowance of her claim. She renewed her claim to unemployment benefit on 8 January 1983, and her case is at present under investigation.
