- Court
- District Court
Because entitlement requires a degree of disability of 10% or more and payment commences from the later of the 13-week date or the date of assessment, and the assessment conducted on 22 February 1995 (the later date) recorded less than 10% disability, the appellant was not entitled to an independence allowance and the Review Officer's decision was correct.
