(2) Notice to the claimant of the time and place of such review;
(3) Notice to the claimant of the purpose of such review;

(5) Notice to the claimant of the result of such review;
(6) Advice to the claimant that, if the result of such review is not satisfactory to him, the hearing which he previously requested will be held; and
