Fact sheet not unambiguous

Hooper v Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

Court of Appeal

“A government fact sheet was not clear and unambiguous enough so that overpayments of incapacity benefit were not recoverable from a person receiving the benefit who took up part-time paid employment without notifying the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions in breach of statute.”
