B.__The individual's availability for or ability to work is limited to part-time work, provided the__individual has good cause for the limitation and a reasonable field of employment remains open to the individual in the labor market area in which the individual resides. For purposes of this paragraph, "good cause" means the illness or disability of the individual or an immediate family member, domestic responsibility or another compelling reason that would influence a prudent person in the same circumstances as the claimant, who is genuinely desirous of working, to impose a limitation on that prudent person's availability for work.

Sec. 3. 26 MRSA §1193, sub-§1, ķA, as repealed and replaced by PL 1991, c. 560, §2, is amended to read:

A. For the week in which the claimant left regular employment voluntarily without good cause attributable to that employment. The disqualification continues until the claimant has earned 4 times the claimant's weekly benefit amount in employment by an employer. A claimant may not be disqualified under this paragraph if:

(2) The leaving was necessary to accompany, follow or join the claimant's spouse in a new place of residence and the claimant can clearly show within 14 days of arrival at the new place of residence an attachment to the new labor market, and the claimant is in all respects able, available and actively seeking suitable work;

(3) The leaving was in good faith in order to accept new employment on a permanent full-time basis and the new employment did not materialize for reasons attributable to the new employing unit; or
