Mr. Godin, the difficulty is this. I agree that they don't have to look for work. Section 25 of the act deems people who are in the in-school portion to be unemployed and available for work. They don't have to look. They are deemed to be available for the benefit. They are not entitled to special benefits as set out by section 12, so you're left with the only other benefit they get, which is the regular benefit, and the wording of the extended section says that if you've had regular benefits, you're not entitled to the additional ones.
