To qualify for jobseeker's allowance a person must be available for and actively seeking full-time work. The person concerned had been in receipt of jobseeker's allowance from 8 November 2010. During a review of his claim he indicated that he was not available for full-time work. His claim was disallowed with effect from 30 March 2011. An appeal has been lodged and he will be informed of the outcome in due course.
