Report of Meeting held 7th November, 1923
Fishburn. Anthony Davison, 43, hewer.
On 14th February, 1922, Davison fell down the shaft and injured his back. He started light work stacking timber on 12th August, 1922, and then started on the screens, only working a short period at each, and payment was stopped on 14th May, 1923. The case was referred to the Official Medical Referee (Dr. Walker) who reported on 2nd October, 1923, as follows :—
1. "A. Davison is in a poor state of health and his condition is such that he is unfit for his ordinary work, and, in fact, for all kinds of work involving any prolonged stooping or twisting of the body. He is unfit to do the work a hewer. His present condition is due purely to the injuries resulting from his accident. Work on the screens could be done if he could rest now and then — not otherwise.
2. The incapacity is solely due to the accident."
Davison has tried the light work on the screens since the above report and has failed to manage, and asked for lull compensation.
Awarded full compensation.
