The claimant requested reconsideration of the Tribunal’s previous decision barring his LAT Application for refusal to attend IEs. The claimant alleged that Vice-Chair Farlam did not properly interpret the SABS, that the statutory notice requirements in the IE notice letters was not met, and that the IEs should have proceeded by way of paper review and that by forcing the claimant to attend an in-person, the IE amounted to a “reverse onus”. The claimant further alleged that Vice-Chair Farlam made a significant error of law for ordering him to attend in-person IEs. Vice-Chair Farlam denied the request, noting that the original decision included references to many of the claimant’s submissions, showing that all evidence was taken into account; she further noted that she had in fact not ordered the claimant to attend an IE, but rather barred him from disputing the MIG before the Tribunal due to his past failures to attend.
