Granted
The discontinuance of VR&E services due to lack of cooperation or failure of participation was improper, and the services are restored.
The deciding factor: The record does not show that the procedures outlined in 38 C.F.R. § 21.364(b) were followed, as a reasonable attempt was not made to discuss the situation with the Veteran or arrange for appropriate services to assist in resolving problems leading to unsatisfactory conduct or cooperation.
