This is an appeal by leave from a decision of the Workmen’s Compensation Appeal Board reversing a referee’s denial of compensation benefits and awarding plaintiff continuing disability compensation benefits for physical and psychological disability arising out of his employment. The appeal board’s opinion was signed by two of the five board members. Three members concurred in result only. The order awarding benefits was signed by all five members. The sole issue on appeal is whether a majority of the five-member board must join in a written opinion.

MCLA 418.261; MSA 17.237(261) provides in part:

"A matter pending on review shall be assigned to a panel of 5 members of the board for disposition. * * * The decision reached by a majority of the assigned 5 members shall be the final decision of the board. If a majority of the assigned 5 members are unable to agree, the matter shall be reviewed by the entire workmen’s compensation appeal board.”

The board’s order, not its written opinion, is its final decision under this section. Kozlowski v Chrysler Corp, 54 Mich App 100; 220 NW2d 319 *652(1974). In the case at bar, all five board members agreed on the order. Therefore, the board fully complied with MCLA 418.261; MSA 17.237(261). Nothing in that section requires a majority to join in a written opinion. Carter v General Motors Corp, 361 Mich 577; 106 NW2d 105 (1960).

Under MCLA 418.861; MSA 17.237(861), this Court is empowered to review questions of law involved in a final order of the board.1 Implicit in this statutory scope of review is the obligation of the board to set forth "the testimony adopted, the standard followed and the reasoning it used in reaching its conclusion”. McClary v Wagoner, 16 Mich App 326, 328; 167 NW2d 800 (1969). See, also, Carter v Detroit Board of Education, 66 Mich App 128; 238 NW2d 419 (1975), Gibbs v Keebler Co, 56 Mich App 690; 224 NW2d 698 (1974), Moore v Gundelfinger, 56 Mich App 73; 223 NW2d 643 (1974).

The opinion of the board in the case at bar satisfies the McClary requirement. The legal standard, testimony adopted and conclusion reached were meticulously set out in member Marshall’s opinion. Thus, this Court has a basis for reviewing any question of law raised by the case at bar.2
