12.7.2.7 Step 7

The delegate has already established that the total amount worked out at Step 6 exceeds the maximum weekly compensation amount payable under MRCA.

12.7.2.3 Step 3

At Step 3 the delegate is calculating the compensation that would notionally be payable under the MRCA for the VEA and DRCA accepted conditions referred to in Step 1(b).

Step 3 asks the delegate to use GARP M to work out the amount of compensation that would be payable under the MRCA for the VEA and DRCA accepted conditions referred to in Step 1 as at the date of the MRCA determination.

12.7.2.1 Step 1

At Step 1 the delegate is calculating the total compensation that would be notionally payable under MRCA for all accepted conditions (regardless of the Act they are accepted under) at the date the veteran makes their MRCA PI claim.

Step 1 asks the delegate to:

  • Use GARP M to assess, as at the date of the MRCA determination, the combined impairment ratings for:

(a) all MRCA accepted conditions, and

(b) any VEA and DRCA accepted conditions which were accepted conditions on the date of the MRCA PI claim
