Section Sch1-53 — Social Security Act 2018: Appeals to medical board

53 Appeals to medical board (1) Subpart 5 of Part 7 applies (with all necessary modifications), and the provisions of the Social Security Act 1964 about appeals to the Medical Board do not apply, to a decision made before the changeover, if an applicant or a beneficiary— (a) immediately before the changeover could have begun under section 10B of that Act (within a specified, or a further allowed, period) an appeal against the decision; and (b) before the changeover did not begin under section 10B of that Act an appeal against the decision. (2) Appeals begun under section 10B of the Social Security Act 1964 and not withdrawn or finally determined at the changeover must be completed under subpart 5 of Part 7. (3) For the purpose of subclause (2), every medical board established under section 10B of the Social Security Act 1964 continues after the changeover as if it were established under Schedule 9 .
