#### 45 Recurrent payments after payment of lump sum
(1) If:
(a) at any time after a lump sum is paid to an employee under section 44 for an injury, the injury results in the employee being incapacitated for work to the extent that the employee is not able to engage in suitable employment; and
(b) the incapacity is likely to continue indefinitely;
compensation is payable to the employee under this section during the period of the incapacity.
(2) The amount of compensation is an amount per week equal to the amount per week that would, but for the payment of the lump sum, have been payable to the employee under section 31, 33, 34, 35 or 36 as the case may be, for the incapacity, less the amount per week that was redeemed at the date of the determination under section 44.
