summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses interruption short period of time
Summary:

Full-time student applying for benefits over the Christmas break from 11-12 to 4-1. The limitation placed on his availability for work was such as to make any job search redundant. The short period of availability in a restricted work market cannot be seriously considered as qualifying him for UI.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses interruption short period of time
Summary:

School break from 16-4 to 4-5. The Board agreed that finding work for such a short period restricted the availability sufficiently to justify a conclusion that claimant was not available. While it is a borderline case, the decision is not so manifestly erroneous as to justify me to interfere.

Summary:

UI not meant to subsidize full-time educational pursuits. Although the period from 24-11 to 5-1 is a rather long Christmas vacation, the Board declined to allow the appeal. Decision unexceptionable.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses interruption short period of time
Summary:

Although forcefully argued by claimant that a Christmas labour market of some 3 weeks does in fact exist, the overwhelming jurisprudence is quite clear. A student in full-time attendance at school is not considered to be on the labour market.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses interruption short period of time
Summary:

Availability as required by s.25 is generally availability for regular full-time employment. Claimant's restrictions for the duration of the Christmas holiday period and to an occupation in which there were few opportunities are clearly restrictions which show non-availability.
