5. Where a claimant satisfies the Secretary of State that—
(a)he would have made a claim, an application for a review or, as the case may be, an application for an appeal on a date (“the earlier date”) earlier than that (“the actual date”) on which he actually did so but for the fact that he was incapable of so doing, or of instructing someone to act on his behalf, by reason of illness or disability; and
(b)that illness or disability continued to be the cause of the delay up to the moment the claim or application was made,
any reference in this Schedule to the date of a claim, application for review, or application for an appeal shall be treated as references to the later of—
(i)the earlier date; and
(ii)the date three years before the actual date.
