Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
week of unemployment  full working week 

Summary:

Fishing 6 hours a day and 6 days a week. Ss.10(1) and reg. 44(1) referred to. Any occupation to which one devotes 36 hours per week can quite reasonably be found to constitute employment for a full working week.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
week of unemployment  incomes 

Summary:

It is not the intention of the Act that those who engage in self-employment as a full-time occupation should be entitled to benefits if their self-employment proves to be unprofitable.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
reconsideration of claim  overpayment  authority to write off 

Summary:

I would respectfully suggest to the Commission that it review this case to see whether it should exercise its discretion under reg. 60 to write off on the grounds of hardship all or part of the overpayment. This is not a matter which I can decide.
