BETWEE N: BRET BUSBY Applicant and
THE REGIONAL MANAGER, DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SECURITY
Respondent CORAM: FRENCH J. 16 APRIL 1987 EX TEMPORE REASONS FOR JUDGMENT The applicant in this case has instituted proceedings
under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act (1977)
seeking review of a decision of the respondent to cancel his unemployment benefit in accordance with advice to the applicant
from the respondent by a letter dated 26 March 1987.
Various grounds for review are set out in the application reflecting grounds to be found in s.5 of the Judicial Review Act. Now is not the time or place to consider the merits of those particular grounds. Today the applicant, in person, as a matter of urgency, and I have permitted him to do so on the basis of a handwritten motion, seeks interlocutory orders pending the
hearing of his substantive application.
