</div>INTRODUCTION<o:p></o:p>In
her complaint of 7th February, 2002, the Complainant alleged that her son was
involved in a accident in which he died and that the Respondent is responsible for
awarding the necessary insurance benefits to her.<o:p></o:p>The
Complainant stated that the Respondent has refused to award her the insurance
benefits even though the owner of the vehicle involved in her son's accidental
death claims the Respondent is responsible to compensate her on his behalf, so
they have nothing to do for her.<o:p></o:p>The
Complainant therefore sought the assistance of the Commission to claim her
compensation from the Respondent.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>OBSERVATION<o:p></o:p>The
Complainant was invited for discussion but failed to show up.<o:p></o:p>Both
parties were also invited for a mediation but none of them showed up and it was
stated in the letter of the Complainant that her refusal to show up would
compel the Commission to close the case on grounds of lack of interest.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>DECISION<o:p></o:p>For
the above reason the Commission has ceased further investigations on grounds of
lack of merit and struck out the complaint with the provision Section 13(1)(b)
of Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice Act 1993 (Act 456)
which provides:<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt;
