Regulation 10 Claimant’s personal representative

Any steps required to be taken by a claimant under this Part may, except for claims to which paragraph (2) applies, be taken by any person having written authority from the claimant to do so, if the claimant has supplied a copy of that authority to an adjudication officer.

In the event of the death of the claimant or of a person who, if he had survived could have been a claimant, a claim may be continued or made as the case may be, by his personal representatives for the benefit of his estate.
