When does a SIP become a SAP?

[Bazooka Boo]

Tribunal is Monday. Got an RBL rep who has thumbed  through the case and has said that;

"Your claim for head injury is rejected under article 41, however I suspect article 46, schedule 3 will apply, which is the exclusion of the use and effects of alcohol consumption.  "

I'm unable to find that anywhere regarding WP, ?....

Am I looking in the right place?

Hi Bazooka Boo

Sorry for the delay and may be a bit late but the Article 41 the are referring to is in this link:

Note it is an Automatic PDF Download and if you look at Page 5 of the PDF the Article 41 Reference is there

Quote

For Article 41 cases the onus is on the claimant to establish that the injury is attributable to or aggravated by service.

Here is the PDF:
