Description
Summary:1948 1948 1940s 32 pages : illustrations [Picture] ... an order which you can cash at a Post Office ... 16. No Double Payment. The National Insurance Schemes are not intended to cover death or injury in war, nor, in general, can anyone qualify for more than one benefit or pension at the same time. With so many different benefits and payments to be taken into account the rules about double payment are too complicated to be put into this Guide, but you will be given full information if the rules affect any claim you make. 17. Decisions and Appeals. Your claim to benefit will be decided by an Insurance Officer appointed by the Minister of National Insurance. If you are not satisfied with the Insurance Officer's decision you may appeal to an independent local Appeal Tribunal. In some cases you may make a further appeal to the Commissioner appointed by the Crown, whose decision will be final. Medical questions on disablement benefit under the Industrial injury Scheme will be decided by Medical Boards, but there will be a right of appeal to a Medical Appeal Tribunal. Contribution questions will be decided by the Minister, with a right of appeal on points of law to the High Court (Court of Session in Scotland). 13 345/3/2/10
