5. The applicant's claim is for loss of earnings as he does not appear to have any medical expenses. Unfortunately it is not possible to calculate the loss of earnings from the information provided and the applicant has not responded to correspondence from the tribunal. In such circumstances it is not possible to assess the claim. It is for the applicant to establish his case and that has not been done.
