Report of Proceedings

Arbitration Committee Meeting
held in the
The Coal Trade Offices, Newcastle-on-Tyne
On Monday, June 12th 1922
4618. St. Hilda. Thomas Wilkinson, 58, stoneman.
Fell off with Miners' Nystagmus on 17th June, 1919. He was paid compensation up to 10th March, when Dr. Wardale reported that Wilkinson was not disabled by nystagmus.
The case was referred to the Official Medical Referee (Dr. Percival) who reported on the 5th April, 1922 :—
"Wilkinson has very slight Coal Miners' Nystagmus still, and his condition is such that he is, in my opinion, fit for work at bank-not work on the belts, and underground work is inadvisable.
The incapacity is partial and is entirely due to Coal Miners' Nystagmus."
Wilkinson is in receipt of full compensation without War addition and claimed the War addition.
Claim for War addition disallowed.
