R2 was established as principal contractor and liable under s24 ECO; the Form 7 finding of 100% LOEC was rejected because applicant was not virtually unemployable and medical experts did not so conclude; applying the revised Hong Kong Paper Mills formula with pre-accident earnings HK$720×24 days=HK$17,280 and notional post-accident earnings HK$2,095 produces LOEC 87.88%, yielding awards under s9, s10 and s10A and interest; costs awarded against R1/R2 and R3 (from date of joinder).
