The issue in this grievance is whether management violated the National Agreement by denying the disclosure of results of a psychiatric evaluation completed by the Veterans Administration to the union. After reviewing this matter, we mutually agreed that no national interpretive issue is fairly presented in this case. Whether the above disclosure is warranted is an issue suitable for regional determination by application of Article 31 of the National Agreement and Sections 222.1 and 223.2 of the Health and Medical Handbook EL-806 to the specific fact circumstances. Accordingly, we agreed to remand this case to the parties at Step 3 for further processing including arbitration, if necessary.
