Secretary of State for Defence v Shaun Francis Rusling: QBD 13 Jun 2003

The applicant sought a war pension, saying he had been affected by ‘Gulf War Syndrome.’ The Pensions Appeal Tribunal had found the condition to be capable of justifying a pension. The Secretary said the matter had been resolved.
Held: The Tribunal had a duty before accepting that a matter was concluded, to ensure that all the issues had been resolved. To do that it was necessary for the Secretary of State to put before the tribunal all relevant material and the full terms of the subsequent decision.
