| E9-30094 | Board of Veterans' Appeals: Remand or Referral for Further Action; Notification of Evidence Secured by the Board and Opportunity for Response | Proposed Rule | The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the Appeals Regulations of the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board or BVA) to articulate the Board's practice of referring unadjudicated claims to the Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ) for appropriate action, and to describe when it is appropriate for the Board to remand a claim to the AOJ for the limited purpose of issuing a Statement of the Case (SOC). We also propose to amend the Board's Rules of Practice to outline the procedures the Board must follow when supplementing the record with a recognized medical treatise, and to remove the notice procedures the Board must currently follow when considering law not considered by the AOJ. The purpose of these amendments is to codify existing practices derived from caselaw, enhance efficiency, and provide guidance and clarification. | 2009-12-18 | 2009 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2009/12/18/E9-30094/board-of-veterans-appeals-remand-or-referral-for-further-action-notification-of-evidence-secured-by | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2009-12-18/pdf/E9-30094.pdf | Veterans Affairs Department | 520 | The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the Appeals Regulations of the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board or BVA) to articulate the Board's practice of referring unadjudicated claims to the Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ) for... |
