Administrative law 2015 SSTAD 413

M. G. v. Minister of Employment and Social Development

The appeal is dismissed because the appellant raised the procedural fairness complaint at the first reasonable opportunity, the Review Tribunal considered the subjective evidence of tinnitus (including testimony, questionnaire and spouse evidence), interruptions and questioning style alone did not constitute a breach of natural justice, and the Tribunal reasonably inferred transferable skills from the appellant's education and work history, so no error of law or procedure requires overturning the decision.

  • Procedural fairness
  • Natural justice
  • Standard of review
  • Disability pension
  • Tinnitus
  • Transferable skills
