                                                    REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

                                                                             

SHARLOW J.A.

[1]                After a hearing, the Pension Appeals Board determined that Mr. Jagpal had failed to establish that he was disabled as of December 31, 1989. Mr. Jagpal is seeking judicial review of that decision.

[2]                We are unable to find that the decision of the Pension Appeals Board is patently unreasonable, or that the Pension Appeals Board made any error of law. This application for judicial review must be dismissed. As the Crown has not asked for costs, none will be awarded.


[3]                Mr. Jagpal says that he has some new medical evidence that is relevant to his claim. That evidence was obtained after the hearing before the Pension Appeals Board and so was not considered by the Board. It remains open to Mr. Jagpal to request a reconsideration of his claim, based on that new evidence, under subsection 84(2) of the Canada Pension Plan, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-8.
