sch.2-sec.4 Multiple injuries and maximum dominant ISV inadequate

This section applies if a court considers the level of adverse impact of multiple injuries on an injured person is so severe that the maximum dominant ISV is inadequate to reflect the level of impact. To reflect the level of impact, the court may make an assessment of the ISV for the multiple injuries that is higher than the maximum dominant ISV. However, the ISV for the multiple injuries— must not be more than 100; and Under section 61 (1) (a) of the Act , an ISV is assessed on a scale running from 0 to 100. should rarely be more than 25% higher than the maximum dominant ISV. If the increase is more than 25% of the maximum dominant ISV, the court must give detailed written reasons for the increase. In this section— maximum dominant ISV , in relation to multiple injuries, means the maximum ISV in the range for the dominant injury of the multiple injuries. (sch.2-sec.4-ssec.1) This section applies if a court considers the level of adverse impact of multiple injuries on an injured person is so severe that the maximum dominant ISV is inadequate to reflect the level of impact. (sch.2-sec.4-ssec.2) To reflect the level of impact, the court may make an assessment of the ISV for the multiple injuries that is higher than the maximum dominant ISV. (sch.2-sec.4-ssec.3) However, the ISV for the multiple injuries— must not be more than 100; and Under section 61 (1) (a) of the Act , an ISV is assessed on a scale running from 0 to 100. should rarely be more than 25% higher than the maximum dominant ISV. (sch.2-sec.4-ssec.4) If the increase is more than 25% of the maximum dominant ISV, the court must give detailed written reasons for the increase. (sch.2-sec.4-ssec.5) In this section— maximum dominant ISV , in relation to multiple injuries, means the maximum ISV in the range for the dominant injury of the multiple injuries.

• (a) must not be more than 100; and Note— Under section 61 (1) (a) of the Act , an ISV is assessed on a scale running from 0 to 100.
• (b) should rarely be more than 25% higher than the maximum dominant ISV.
