Judicial Summary

In the context of investigating the work history of an EU national whose vulnerabilities due to poor mental health limited the evidence directly available, the UT, in remaking its decision, obtains detailed evidence from HMRC as to how the contributions and credits record provided by DWP through the NIRS should be read. The record and the findings on that evidence form appendices to the decision.
