Summary:
The Umpire stated that nothing in Section 40 of the Act stipulates that the prescribed 36-month period is to be determined based on the date the claimant is notified of a penalty. Instead, it says the Commission may impose a penalty within 36 months of the date the claimant committed the act or omission. In this case, the Umpire ruled that the decision had been made and notice letter sent within the prescribed time.
