Respondent
APPLICATION FOR LEAVE TO APPEAL TO THE HIGH COURT
The appellant has applied for leave to appeal to the High Court against the decision of His Honour Judge M J Beattie issued on 4 November 1999 under number 310/99.
The issue before His Honour was whether the respondent was correct to determine that the appellant had a capacity for work as defined in section 51(2) of the Act. His Honour noted that both the appellant and the respondent provided additional evidence at the appeal hearing which identified work for which the appellant had a capacity and which suited his abilities. His Honour's conclusion was that the respondent had correctly followed the Work Capacity Assessment Procedure established by section 50 of the Act and that the decision of the respondent as confirmed by the Review Officer was correct.
