Material relates to case where Rita Keshaw, a deserted wife with child from previous relationship (father not in picture), recently made redundant had sought supplementary welfare allowance under the National Fuel Scheme operated by Eastern Health Board (EHB) (Jan 1984) which was refused with no explanation. Appeal also refused April 1984 with no investigation carried out in either case, and Kershaw given no opportunity to make representations. Judgement on 12/11/1984 awarded costs and was deemed a success but it is unclear from incomplete files whether EHB ever reversed their decision. Mary Robinson acted as Senior Counsel on behalf of Kershaw (STATE).

Material in this subsubseries is arranged across two files.
