Non-earner benefit denied as applicant failed to prove complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The applicant sought a non-earner benefit, interest, and an award under s. 10 of Reg. 664 following a motor vehicle accident.
The Tribunal applied the Heath test and found the applicant failed to prove a complete inability to carry on a normal life, noting his pre-accident baseline involved minimal activity due to prior health issues and there was substantially little change post-accident.
The Tribunal placed little weight on the applicant's physiotherapist certificate as it lacked detail and included psychological diagnoses outside the practitioner's scope.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
