Compensation for not notifying the status of the petition for the monthly old-age allowance to the petitioner

According to Clause 6 (3) and Clause 7 of the Ministerial Regulation on the Criteria and Method for the Disbursement of Subsistence Allowance for Older Persons, B.E. 2552 (2009), an elder person who is about to reach sixty years of age in the next government’s fiscal year must apply for the old-age monthly allowance with the competent authorities in November every year in order to obtain such allowance. Since the Plaintiff claimed to apply for such aid during the unprescribed time yet he was unable to provide any evidence thereof, it can be deemed that the Plaintiff was not entitled to receive the allowance during the B.E. 2558 government’s fiscal year as he did not follow the stipulated procedure. After examining the Plaintiff’s petitions, the Defendant announced the additional eligibility list for monthly old-age allowance of the B.E. 2559 government’s fiscal year (1st October B.E. 2558 to 30th September B.E. 2559) with the Plaintiff’s name in the list even though he did not adhere to the procedure of the said Ministerial Regulation. The Plaintiff eventually acquired the allowance since October B.E. 2558 henceforward. Therefore, the Defendant did not neglect its official duties required by the law to be performed and did not commit a wrongful act pursuant to Section 420 of the Civil and Commercial Code. However, since the Defendant did not notify the Plaintiff about the amendment of the eligibility list, the Plaintiff still misunderstood that he had to take further legal actions to gain the monthly allowance. Consequently, the Defendant was liable to pay the compensation to the Plaintiff for the costs incurred from filing several petitions to the relevant authorities and filing a case with Administrative Court in the amount of 5,000 baht.
