REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

THE CHIEF JUSTICE:

We are all of the view that the findings of fact available to be made and so made by the Board of Referees and by the learned Chief Umpire should not be disturbed, and that it was open to the Chief Umpire to conclude as he did that the Respondent was entitled to receive unemployment insurance benefits during the annual non-teaching period.

Accordingly, the section 28 application should be dismissed.
