Further information: Local Appeal Tribunal for Injury benefit heard at Chesterfield and the Tribunal's decision was found in favour of Coogan. Uncertainty was around the fact that after initial treatment for a laceration of the leg was completed and the claimant had returned to work, Coogan was certified as having a cellulitis a bit higher up the same leg and it was noted : 'States he gets very frequently knocked at work'. Tribunal was convinced by records from the Markham Colliery Medical Room that the claimant had been attending regularly for treatment when a small piece of 'wire came out' and thus related second episode of illness to the first. |
