The Applicant was catastrophically injured in a 2008 motor vehicle accident and received Income Replacement Benefits (IRBs).
In 2014, the Respondent acknowledged a miscalculation in the initial IRB rate and paid the differential of $15,003.56, but refused to pay interest.
The Applicant applied to the Licence Appeal Tribunal for interest, a special award, and costs.
The Tribunal found that the Respondent had sufficient information in 2008 to correctly calculate the IRBs, meaning the differential was overdue and interest was payable under section 46 of the Schedule.
However, the Tribunal declined to order a special award or costs, finding the Respondent's actions were not unreasonable or in bad faith.
