Decisions involving issues that arise on appeal in other casesN.I.
25 .F1—F2(1) This Article applies where—
(a)a decision by the Department falls to be made under Article 9, 10 or 11 in relation to a particular case; and
(b)an appeal is pending against the decision given in another case by a Commissioner or a court (whether or not the two cases concern the same benefit).
(2) In a case relating to a relevant benefit, the Department need not make the decision while the appeal is pending if it considers it possible that the result of the appeal will be such that, if it were already determined, there would be no entitlement to benefit.
(3) If the Department considers it possible that the result of the appeal will be such that, if it were already determined, it would affect the decision in some other way—
(a)the Department need not, except in such cases or circumstances as may be prescribed, make the decision while the appeal is pending;
(b)the Department may, in such cases or circumstances as may be prescribed, make the decision on such basis as may be prescribed.
(4) Where the Department acts in accordance with paragraph (3)(b), following the determination of the appeal it shall, if appropriate, revise its decision (under Article 10) in accordance with that determination.
(5) For the purposes of this Article, an appeal against a decision is pending if—
(a)an appeal against the decision has been brought but not determined;
(b)an application for leave to appeal against the decision has been made but not determined; or
(c)in such circumstances as may be prescribed, an appeal against the decision has not been brought (or, as the case may be, an application for leave to appeal against the decision has not been made) but the time for doing so has not yet expired.
(6) In sub-paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph (5), any reference to an appeal, or to an application for leave to appeal, against a decision includes a reference to an application for, or for leave to apply for, judicial review of the decision under section 18 of the [1978 c. 23.] Judicature (Northern Ireland) Act 1978.
