CCR/1895/2003
DECISION OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY COMMISSIONER
REASONS
"In court, the judge said I would not be able to work past the 2½ years (Feb 1997)."
As that was said in the light of an award of compensation for loss of earnings covering only a period of two and a half years, the implication is that the court took the view that, from February 1997, the claimant was incapable of work due to some cause other than the relevant accident. If that is so even if "incapable of work" is given the technical meaning required by Part XIIA of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992, incapacity benefit paid from February 1997 was paid to the claimant otherwise in respect of the relevant accident and should not be included in the certificate of recoverable benefits.
(Signed) MARK ROWLAND
Commissioner
