Summary:

The Commission determined that this claimant was a new entrant pursuant to subsection 7(4) of the Act since he did not have at least 490 hours of labour force attachment in the 52 week period preceding his qualifying period. The claimant had accumulated a "subsequent violation" within the 260 weeks preceding this claim. The number of insurable hours required to qualify for benefits was increased to 1,365 hours in virtue of subsection 7.1(2) of the Act, he had accumulated 1,209 hours. It is well established that the 260 week period runs from the date when the notice of violation was issued, not from the date when the violation was committed by the claimant. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
