Does this cover people who develop the incapacity after they have ceased the employment? In my tribunal experience, there were a number of cases where someone claimed to have an incapacity not during his time at work, but after he had left. Very often, the employer sent someone around to find that person in his home—sometimes, happily, to see whether he could do anything to help him, and other times just to check whether the person really was incapacitated—and the person could not be found, so the whole proceeding was delayed for a long time. Is this amendment designed to cover that sort of case?
