Summary:
Received 30 weeks of UI in qualifying period. Rate of unemployment is 6.4%, so 19 insured weeks are required to requalify. She has 18 weeks plus 1 day. One day does not count as a week by reason of reg. 13(1). This is not a matter over which the Commission has any discretion.

Summary:
The effect of s.26 is to require that even though benefits are paid for part of a week, that week is still treated as one in which benefits are paid. The rate of weekly benefit is reduced but a claimant is treated as having received benefits for that week.
