Withdrawal and amendment of claim

(1) If a person having claimed– (a) a retirement benefit; or (b) a disablement benefit before the end of the injury benefit period, wishes to withdraw that claim, he may notify the Board in writing accordingly and if the notice is received at the office of the Board before the claim has been finally determined, the claim shall be treated as having been withdrawn on the date of receipt of such notice. (2) Any person who has made a claim for benefit in accordance with these Regulations may, by notice in writing addressed to the office of the Board, amend his claim at any time before a decision is given thereon, and any claim so amended may be treated as if it had been duly made in the first instance.
