Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the respondent was entitled to unemployment benefits from 1 December 2005.
Decisione estratta
No. She was not employable for the relevant interim period and therefore had no entitlement to unemployment benefits.
Motivazione estratta
She had knowingly followed a long-standing seasonal pattern, working from March to November and claiming benefits only during the short winter gap. In the local labour market, prospects of being hired for the remaining short period were too low, so employability was lacking.
