The MVCS is a scheme determined by the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Commission (the MRCC) under section 212 of the MRCA.
The Motor Vehicle Compensation Scheme Instrument is the relevant determination.
The MVCS allows the MRCC to:
provide for the reasonable cost of motor vehicle modifications;
maintain and/or repair modifications to a motor vehicle;
subsidise the purchase of a (initial new or second-hand or replacement) motor vehicle; or
provide compensation for the cost of insurance insofar as the insurance relates to any modifications provided under the MVCS.
Where a clinical assessment has been undertaken that has been able to establish the eligible person:
Has suffered an impairment as a result of a service injury or disease for which the Commission has accepted liability; and
Because of that impairment, the person has a need for compensation of that kind.
