We have looked again at the decision dated 29/07/2010. The new decision is that the jobseeker is not disentitled or sanctioned. The law used to make this decision Social Security Act 1998 sec 9

JSAPS Code: CSL001 DATE OF TRANSGRESSION ASSUMED TO BE 07/07/2010

The decision dated 29/07/2010 is erroneous in Law and is revised. Section 19 (1) of the Jobseekers Act 1995 prescribes the circumstances in which Jobseekers Allowance is not payable. It does not mention imposing sanctions on national insurance credits. Mr Xxxxx was not being paid Jobseekers Allowance and has not in fact been awarded payment since 2009. In these circumstances it was incorrect in Law to apply the sanction/disallowance. In many respects the DM should only have made an opinion decision on this question rather than a formal decision. It is noted that there is no provision in Law for opinion decisions to attract rights of appeal. Overall the sanction/disallowance covering the period 07/07/2010 to 13/08/2010 is lifted. It should be noted that papers relating to this decision are not held in storage and as such the outcome cannot be supported
