The Unemployment Security Board's decision to deny unemployment support was not altered by the court. The applicant argued that the child's placement in a foster home under child protection laws constituted a heavy reason for the child allowance to be a reason for paying unemployment support. The court held that such placement alone does not automatically qualify as the sole heavy reason required for payment obligations.
