Summary:
The claimant traveled to Costa Rica for a vacation and was not seeking treatment there. He had been on sick benefits as he was recovering from a drug problem. He was advised to go for the holiday in Costa Rica. The Board of Referees found that the claimant did not fit in with any of the exemptions of Regulation 55 and found that s. 37(b) of the Act applied and the claimant was not entitled to benefits. The appeal of the claimant dismissed.
