2.5 Calculating Fortnightly Equivalent of DRCA Section 30 Lump Sum Payments

The Australian Government Actuary (AGA) tables are used to calculate a fortnightly equivalent of the lump sum compensation payment. The person is deemed to have been in receipt of the fortnightly equivalent amount from whichever is the later of:

• The date that the lump sum payment is made to the person; or
• The date that the Disability Compensation Payment became payable to the person.
