Summary:
The BOR had refused to allow the claimant to put in evidence before it of her job search in order to demonstrate that her involvement with the business was only minor. The FCA held that the Umpire erred in refusing to receive the claimant's evidence regarding the Board's refusal to look at her job search. A Board is normally obliged to hear such evidence and its refusal to do so, if unexplained, could be found by an Umpire to be a denial of natural justice.
