Part H:
Determination of Questions and Appeals

Part H deals with decisions and medical questions which may arise (Rule H1) and allows for an appeal to a Board of Medical Referees (Rule H2) where a medical opinion is disputed. The detailed procedure for medical appeals is in Schedule 9 Part I.

With certain restrictions there is provision for an appeal to the courts if the dispute as to entitlement is not based on a medical opinion (Rule H3).

Schedule 9 Part II deals with the arrangements for reference to a tribunal in the event of an appeal in an overseas service case.
